I need to be able to create file that has numerous pages of the same form. I
have already created the form but need to be able to fill it out and save and
then the next week fill out the same form again. I would like to be able to
do this all within 1 file rather than have 50 files all 1 page. Any help
would be appreciated.
 
What you propose is not very practical. Duplicating forms provides all kinds
of pitfalls to overcome. It would make far more sense either
1. Save the form as a template and create new documents from it. Numbering
the documents is easy enough
http://www.gmayor.com/automatic_numbering_documents.htm but you will have
one file per document.
2. If you must have the documents in a single file then instead of a
protected form, you need a user form to gather the repeated data and to
insert that into your document - For the basics, see Word MVP FAQ -
Userforms http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms.htm
