Default Typing on dotted lines

I think you may be the first person ever who has not felt that word.mvps.org
is a useful site. You say you want a dotted line that you can type on, yet a
MacroButton field doesn't work for you? What part of your requirements am I
not understanding? Just insert a MacroButton field with either a row of
periods or a row of spaces with a dotted underline as the prompt.

I tried all 5 suggestions but none of them worked. After I type in the

dotted
line the other texts are affected

Hi All,
I am creating a standard letter to keep on my database Within the
letter I have for example:

Thank you for your gift of $........, we appreciate your interest.

If
I shoud type $10.00 in the dotted lines the sentence becomes

longer.
Is there a way to type within the dotted line so that the sentence
remains in tact?

Thanks
