Default Inserted Controls do not work once Saved

I am creating a form with textbox controls and date control. They work fine
until I save the document then the controls seem to disappear. Has anyone
had this problem before and what is the solution? I have copied the form and
re-created the controls, but once again upon saving the form the controls go
away.

HELP

Which version of Word are you using? Note that if you are using Word 2007,
inserting content controls, and then saving in Word 97-2003 format, content
controls will be converted to static text.
