word forms--for inputing info...

[jason]

I have created a couple forms using Word 2002. After I
have saved and locked the form, I dont to be able to
manipulate the document in any places other that the field
I have specified. However, when I hit the Enter Key it
returns to the next line in the same field....changing the
format of the form.....How can I disable the enter key on
the forms....or change what the enter key does?

You can put your text form fields in a table cell with exact row height,
which will limit the amount of text that can be displayed and printed
(though not the amount that can be entered). If you really want to disable
the Enter key, see "WD: How to Code ENTER Key to Move to Next Field in Form"
