Fillin Fields Word 2003
Hi All,
I have various tables in a word document, and I have a textbox on top of one of the cells to keep the size of the box / cell the same. (unless you guys know how to lock the size of a cell in the table then this is my alternative). I have successfully created the FILLIN fields for most/all cells and in the textbox. However the textbox fields are prompted after all the others in the tables, and I want them to come in earlier in order of apperance if that makes sense. In other words I just would like to know if there is a way to change the order the user is prompted for fields and why is the order so mucked up ? It worked fine before then I started again and it just does not work.. Help.. Cheers Kingsley |

Fillin Fields Word 2003
You can specify an exact height for a table row and a preferred width for
the column. You'll also need to disable table auto resizing. This works best in a protected form, where even inadvertent changes are not possible, but it may be all you need to keep your cell the desired size. -- Suzanne S.
