What you are talking about is a userform which requires vba programming.
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm

You may want to first explore what Word calls an "online form." Check this
in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...nesInForms.htm.

Userforms are far more powerful and flexible than online forms, but they
take a corresponding greater amount of expertise and work.

Hope this helps,

I'm trying to find out how to make a document into a form. One that has
text
boxes that popup with questions in order to fill out the sections of the
form. For instance a part of the DOC that is for an address will pop up
with
a text box asking for the client's address. You would fill out the box and
it
would populate the field. Someone? Anyone?
