I am creating a form for wedding rehearsals. When I lock the form and use it, the text moves over the next "item". For example: Name: text goes here Date: text goes here When I type in the name, the entire date section moves over. How do I prevent this from happening? Hope this makes sense:-)

Hope this makes sense:-) Insert a table. You could use just two cells, but I'll suggest four cells, putting each label and each form field into a separate cell. Click Table > AutoFit > Fixed Column Width (or in Word 2007 it's Table Tools > Layout > AutoFit > Fixed Column Width) to prevent the cells from expanding sideways when you type in them. You can turn off the table's borders if you don't want them. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
