I added the KB macros to my form and it did work, except that the formatting
of the field was not carried out (i.e. with format set to MM/dd/yy, input 5/4
and field showed 5/4 instead of 05/04/06) when using the enter key. I found
that by using the command SendKeys "{TAB}" the fields woud be formatted.
Also, did not have to check if was last field to go first field.

Here is the code.

Sub EnterKeyMacro()
' Check whether the document is protected for forms
' and whether the protection is active.
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdAllowOnlyFormFields And _
Selection.Sections(1).ProtectedForForms = True Then
' Go to the next form field if the current form field
SendKeys "{TAB}"
Else
' If the document is not protected for forms,
' insert a tab stop character.
Selection.TypeText Chr(13)
End If
End Sub

Is there a way to limit a form field to 1 line only so when the enter key is
used to navigate round the form instead of the tab key another line is not
added? I have some fields that cannot be limited to a set sum of characters,
e.g names, and want to stop extra lines being added.
