entering date, $ and text fields into a Word document

[Guest]

I'm trying to create a template in Words.
I have many fields to create:
date / amount / text - description / yes and no /
Somehow I was able to crete year and month fields, although it has been
impossible to create the day, since the TEXT FORM FIELD OPTIONS only allows
25 entries...
Concerning the amount field, earlier I was able to apply a format(so when a
number is entered reads ex.: $ 1,526, but now is gone.... and cannot
recreate...
Everytime I click help, the macro info shows... but i would prefer stay away
from macros....
Is there a way to learn the correct process, please?
Kind regards,
Criss
