How can you stop text from moving when filling in a form in micros

Having created a form on Word 2003 when someone enters data into certain form
fields it forces the rest of the data on that row to move across. How do I
set the format of the page please?!

Thanks in advance

An actual *form* has to be created using Tables and controls on the Forms
toolbar (Text Box Form Fields, Check Boxes, etc.) along with other features,
then saved as a Template. Start with the following link & follow the others
on that page:

Of course it does, just like many other entered text would! To stop this you
must limit the area in which the user can enter data. The usual ploy is to
use a borderless table cell of fixed dimensions to hold the form field
