Hi there,

I know there is a way to tab to specific word in a document but can't find
it anywhere.

I have a fax cover template and I would like people to only be able to tab
to the needed area such as Name, (by click tab in would go to) Contact name,
then phone number, etc.

Instead, it goes to each tab stop such as "name", then the area to fill the
name then "phone number", then the area to input the phone number and so on...

Can somebody help with this?
Thank you
