Forms

[Guest]

Hi there,

I have a form all made and I have it locked so that the format will not be
disrupted, but the problem I am having is that even though it is locked you
can still hit enter and it enters down a line, which if you haven't guessed
disrupted the format and screws everything up.

Is there a way to make it so that the enter key will not work. I want the
people using the form to only be able to type things in and tab over to the
next feild.

Please help me

You can change the action of the Enter key or put your field in a fixed-size
container like a table cell or frame. Links for both of these cane be found
at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at

Hope this helps,
