Default TAB Navigation through Legacy Forms

Word 7 - PW restricted Form containing Table with multiple types of legacy
control forms...

I need to direct the [TAB] to move about to different fields on the form.
Currently, it always moves the the right and at the end of line goes to the
beginning of the next line.

Though the following is messy, I do have a macro where I can hop from
Bookmark to Bookmark. However, the page display jumps around as the cursor
moves from field to field. Very annoying. Is there a way to have it move
without having the page display to move?

Sub Goto_CC_S2()
'
' Goto_CC_S2 Macro
'
'
Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:="CC_S2_TYPE"
End Sub

Ideally, I would like to use a macro command to just move the cursor down to
the next field using the "Run Macro on Exit". However, I can't seem to make
this command work. Any ideas what I am missing? Error: Run-time error '4120'
: Bad parameter

Sub NextCell_Down()
'
' NextCell Macro
' Moves to the next table cell
'
Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdCell

End Sub
