Default Creating forms

How can I create form fields in Word where the fields are edited in typeover
mode? When I lock the document and fill in the fields, it pushes the other
fields around. Turning on the typeover key does not work.

You would want to put your fields in either tables with fixed-size cells or
in frames. What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form."
For more about online forms, follow the links at

http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles.

Hope this helps,
