Form Template

[Guest]

I want to be able to fill out a form on Word e-mail it to the respective
people. I think that using the template form would be the easiest way to do
that. I tried to create a form template but when I fill the text form field
boxes it rearranges the document. Is there a way to contain the characters
in the field boxes with out disturbing the rest of the document.

Please Help!

Put your form fields in fixed-size frames or table cells. What you are
talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this in help. For
more about online forms, follow the links at
