how to create a macro to tab through text boxes in word?

[Coops]

I have created a form in Word and protected it from editing but I want the
user to be able to tab through the text fields. I've never created a macro
before

If you have created a protected form with form fields pressing tab moves
between the form fields without the need for a macro?

OK.....you're right....I created a Word Doc, not a form, with form fields.
Pressing the tab button doesn't do anything right now. Is there a setting
I'm missing?

thanks

The addition of the form fields to accept user input?
