Need help using tables in Word.

[kimlogan77]

I need to place tick marks in a cell in a table i created. These "tick marks"
will be used to control the number of characters entered per field to avoid
text wrapping and changing the format of the form. I would like to place the
little lines in cells for "state" (2), "zip code" (9 spaces plus hyphen),
etc. Please, please, please help.

I'm not sure what the tick marks should be used for? If you create a
form in Word, you can choose to limit each text field to the desired
number of characters. Also, to get control over field placement, you'd
insert each field in a table cell with fixed dimensions. See:

I'm designing a form that needs to have "fill-in-the-blanks" lines.
What is the best way to create them?
