Chances are good that you stored the macros in your normal.dot template
rather than in the form.
With the form open on your machine, press Alt-F11 to open up the visual
basic editor. Find your macros. They are probably in normal.dot in a module
called "New Macros." If they are there, cut them and paste them into your
form, probably in the module called "New Macros."
Save the changes to normal.dot and to your form. Check to see if the macros
now operate the way you expect in your form.
What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." For more
about online forms, follow the links at

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,
