Word forms-req'd fields

[Guest]

I sat up a Word template with text {FORMTEXT} fields. Is there any way that
I can require a field to be filled in to move to the next field?

Yes see the link at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms
for validating form fields.

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
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,
