I received a word doc and want to use it as a template. When I try to type,
in the doc, the lines and spaces move. I just want to enter text in the
fields but it looks like I need to change the formatting. I'm using Word 2003
and am not very experienced in word. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If the document is supposed to be used as a form, the usual approach is to
add table cells (with fixed dimensions) to prevent the layout from changing.
