This is so weird to me! I created a form with a small table in the
top, 2 columns which looks like:
Name: form.name feild
Date: form.date feild
DOB: form.DOB feild
(column 2)
Address: form.Address feild
...and that's it for the table.
When I view and print it on my machine each line is single spaced
(just like above) and comes out pretty. When others bring up the
template, this table expands as if the form feilds have 12 points
before and after them. Sort of like:



Name: form.Name feild





Date: form.Date feild




...etc.
It's weird! I've checked the before and after spacing in Paragraph
properties, I checked the table properties and the form feild
properties and I don't see anything anywhere that might make it
behave this way.

Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? I've brought it up
on two different machines and it comes out expanded. My machine
seems to be the only one that it comes out correct on. I've written
this in Word07. One of the machines has Word07 on it and the other
has Word03 on it and it comes up "funny" on both of them.

One thing that's important is that it seems to be expanded only for
the Name and Date form feilds and I have assigned StyleRefs to the
Name and Date feilds (to update them in the footer) but I don't see
anything in the Style Settings that might make them act this way
either.

Can someone please let me how to make it the same on the other
machines, if I need to set something somewhere or need to check some
setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated because at this
point, I'm pretty much friggen clueless!

Thanks in advance!
