Default How do I freeze the text after a fill in space

What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this
in help. 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.

You need to put your formfield in a container, either a fixed-size table
cell or a frame.

Hope this helps,

When creating a form, and the fill in space, when text is entered into the
fill in space the text on the same line shifts. I don't want the fill in
text
to effect the rest of the text on the form.
