Default "Fill-in-the-Blank" Document Question

Very easy. Table menu, Insert Table and for what you have described, 2
columns. You don't need to worry about the number of rows as you just press
the tab key to move from cell to cell. Pressing tab in the last cell will
create another row the same as the one above. If you highlight a cell you can
drag to resize the cells in that row. Just position the cursor at the edge of
the cell and it will turn to a two headed arrow. You can also resize rows in
a similar way. You can format the table cells with font, size and style as
you wish. Post back if you need more help.

I'm not a very savvy Word user, basically just documents. Is it easy to make
a table?

I typed up a "fill in the blank" document that is saved in Word on a shared
drive (see below). My colleagues will copy and paste this document into an
email, fill in the blanks, and send the email to people in our department.
In Word, I have the Font Style set as Bold and the Font Size set as 18. Is
there a way to save the document in Word, so when people start typing in the
email (after they've copied and pasted), the Font Style is set as Not Bold
and the Font Size is set as 14? When I copy and paste the document into an
email now and start typing, it's Bold and 18. It doesn't look good with all
that bold and the same font size. I want some contrast. In Word, I tried
clicking next to the colon, changing the size to 14, clicking to un-bold, and
then saving, but it doesn't save.
Am I explaining my problem clearly?
