Be careful to use only form fields from the Forms toolbar, not ActiveX
controls from the Controls Toolbox.

I protected one form (to use as a test document), but I'm still getting the
macro warning upon attempting to open the form. Also, I went through
setting
macro security and adding a trusted developer (Microsoft doesn't seem to
be
included in the list, although Visio seems to be) and couldn't add
Microsoft
because I'll need a custom program (?) that doesn't seem to be included in
the software at work. I'll keep trying

Ordinary use of form fields doesn't require macros; it just requires
protecting the document for forms. There will be no macro warning.

Thanks...but I have been forbidden to use macros or anything automated!
That's quickly becoming the problem. My boss at work says no one the
forms
will be going to will know what to do if presented with the
"Disable/Enable
Macros" message... Same thing for protecting the form. I'll keep
trying!

I'm creating forms in MSWord for people who aren't word processors
or
even
programmers. They are used to tabbing through forms to get to the
next
place
to enter text; however, in Word tabbing creates a new table row. Is
this a
toggle that I can turn off somewhere? Or what should I do? Thanks.
