Tab-Through Templates

Hello,

I've generally used word for simple word-processing tasks, but a coworker recently asked me if I could make a tab-through template based on a clinical form that she fills out frequently. For instance, it would have a place for Client Name, Number, SSN, etc, then go on to have paragraph headers like HISTORY, ATTITUDE/BEHAVIOR, etc, and rather than clicking the mouse in the spaces provided she wants to just 'tab' from field to field as in a database program or something similar. I really didn't know if this was possible, so I figured I'd ask here.

Thanks,

Vel
