It is better to start a new thread for a new question rather than hijack
another similar thread. In this case, put your form fields into (borderless)
table cells of fixed dimensions and then the content cannot move the rest of
the text.

Hi all

I have created a form and have entered all the necessary text fields and
protected the form. The actual fields work fine, however, when users enter
details into the fields, it 'pushes' any other text and fields on the same
line across the screen.

How do I prevent this from happening?

Thank you.
Louise
 
What do you mean 'hijack another similar thread'?? I did start a new
question...?

How do you fix dimensions of table cells?
 
Your message is appended to a similar thread start date 13 Jan.

Table > Table Properties > Row > specify height as exactly the size you
want.
Table > Autofit > Fixed Column Width.

Don't know why/how it's appended to another message, I created a new thread
as I always do.

Thanks for help...
 
Who can understand the machinations of the Microsoft server? ;)

It's probably operating the same as Outlook Express. If I Show All Messages
in OE instead of using Hide Read Messages, I also see this post (obviously
new, given the absence of Re:) appended to an old thread. If the subject
line is the same, OE decides it's the same thread.
