Default How can I setup a data entry form in Word?

I'm trying to setup a template in MS Word that when used will act like a data
entry form. Allowing the users to only tab to fields to input the
appropriate data. Just like in MS Access

This is called an on-line form. Insert the fields from the forms toolbar and
lock the form.

You can use either a protected form or a UserForm. For the former, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and especially
the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to. For the
latter, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm
