How do I lock or freeze text in Word

A

arrowheadbob

I'm sure that others must have asked this. I want to create a form that has
blank lines that others can either handwrite in or type in the blanks. I
have tried using fields, however, when someone uses the enter key in a field,
it bumps all the text around on the form. I would like some way to lock all
the existing text and format and allow someone to just fill in the blanks
without destroying the form.

Is this possible in Word 2003?
Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem arrowheadbob is having. The website
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfms/LinesInForms.htm does not help with
this situation it tells you how to make a form where people can type into the
cell next to it but it does not tell you how to freeze a cell. We already got
the form made up but we want to freeze the cells (ex. TO: )so when they open
the document they can not miss up this cell they can only type in the cell
beside where they are suppose to.
