Default How do I create a line that can be typed on? Examp:Name ________

I am creating a registration form and I want to place lines after pertinent
information that can be typed on. How do I do this?
Example: Name ________________

I can create the line but when you type on it, the line moves. I want the
line to stay in place so the typed info is on the line.

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Traci

Try looking at http://www.mousetrax.com/techpage.html#autoforms where they
tell about using form fields.

Use table cells with fixed dimensions and the appropriate border lines. See
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfms/LinesInForms.htm. If you want to
create "true" forms, with form fields, see also the linked articles by Dian
Chapman.
