Default Hard Returns MS Word Template Form

Graham:

Thanks. Your suggestion worked for fixing field lengths. Although the
lines are not visable the form adds a line when "Enter" is pressed. Is there
anyway to supress the blank line?

I'm using MS XP and Word97. How do I stop anyone from entering a hard return
in my form? For example: If I have the following in the form (example),

Last Name: text form field First Name: text form field

If the curser is in the text form field and I press "Enter" the entire
line from the right of that will drop down to the next line.

Last Name: text form field First Name: text form field

text form field First Name: text form field

Also, if the text form field is let's say 10 characters. As I type in the
text form field for the entire 10 characters, the next field to the right
starts moving to the right.

Example: Last Name: text form field First Name: text form field

If I start typing in last name, the first name fiels starts moving to the
right by the number of characters I typed into the last name field.

Last Name: aaaaaaaaaa First Name: text
form field

Thanks.\John
