I've created a form in word to use as a template. I typed in help text for
my form field on the status bar tab under type your own. It does not show up
on the form. Why?
 
Help text shows up on the Status Bar, not on the form.

There should be a blank in the form field window for Display Text. Whatever
is typed there should show up in the form field as default text.
 
That's a different animal. You're referring to the "Default text" rather
than "Add Help Text..."?
