I am trying to create a document with specific feilds that cannot be moved or
changed but has fields next to those to fill in. I need to be able to send
out for clients to fill in and send back. Like a Data Entry form where you
tab through and fill in the blanks without movings the question fields. I
know this can be done and am getting a headache trying to figure this out.
Someone please help!

What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this
in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at

Hope this helps,
