Default Creating a Form with control toolbox textbox

I am trying to create a form to be filled bu others using the MS Word
textboxes of the control toolbox. But when I protect the document,
people cant use the form unless they set macro securiry to "LOW".

What can I do to avoid this from happening. I am using Word 2000.

I also tried using the "forms" tools but we have had problems with
this tool.

Thanks for the help!

How is the form intended to be used?
