Default completing a form with fields

I believe that in fact I did lock the form. when I start typing the
information i need into the form field then press the tab key it just makes
the length of the answer block longer and does not put me into the next
field. If you have a little patience with me, could you please indicate how
I lock the form. I just searched the icon keys and found the lock. put it
on my quick access bar and proceeded to use it like i do with word 2003.
Thank you for your response. It would make a huge difference in my work if i
could get this to work well.

Exactly the same form tools are available in 2007 as 2003, with the addition
of some new ones which may or may not help your purpose.

When completing a form, how do I advance through all the fields by
using the tab key, as opposed to using the mouse. This was simple
with word 2003 -- just lock the document, fill in the field, press
the tab key to get to the next field. I can't seem to make it work
in word 2007 without using my mouse.
