Default how do I anchor text in a Word form

I created a form letter and inserted various "text form fields", when
protected the person tabs to the fields & fill in required information. My
problem is that the text around the "text form fields" keep moving the more
information that is typed into the "text form field". I have gone into
properties and limited the length of the text form field but the text keeps
moving. Any suggestions

Place each text form field inside a table cell with fixed dimensions.
Apply/remove borders as desired. See:

I'm designing a form that needs to have "fill-in-the-blanks" lines.
What is the best way to create them?
