Drupal 7 and views

Hi. I am having a bit of trouble with views in drupal 7. I have created a Content Type which expects a user to input data into fields. I then choose views from the structure menu, and I add a new view. I give it a name, and under Create A Page, I give it a title, path and set the format to
Grid of Fields
I then create a Menu link.

On the next page, the Views UI, I go to the fields section and add field. I tick everything that relates to my Content Type e.g. Content: First Name
Appears in: node:introduction

Where introduction is my Content Type.

Under configure fields, I create a Label and click apply. Now, what I am expecting is a field where the user can enter their First Name. However, nothing is displayed. If I create content and give everything in my Content Type a value, then displaying it in views is not a problem. Its when I want to use the Content Type to allow users to enter a value the problem arises.

Does anyone know what I am missing, or where I am going wrong?

Many thanks

Nick
