Do not want to "enter" in a tables cell
I created a form in Word 2003 but, when the user presses enter the form
expands. Is there any way I can lock it so that when you press enter it doesn't move? |

Yes.
What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." For more about online forms, follow the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...nesInForms.htm. One of these links in the first page above shows how to change the action of the Enter key to act like a tab key. You can also put your fields in fixed height table cells so even if the person hits Enter, the form doesn't change and what is typed is simply recorded off screen (and won't print).
