Yes. Insert Form Fields into the table cells. Right-click the FF and select
Properties. Here you can control the input, type and maximum characters. To
test the FF doesn't exceed the cell, fill it will 8888s and see how many
characters it will fit.

I am trying to make a report form as a table with boxes to be typed in
that
do not change size with text added, but only allow a certain amount of
text?
Is there a way to do this? I have Word 2003
