Default Put a document in word into a fillable form

I have a word document that's not currently in any forms, or any other type, of format. It consists of chunks of information and a main table in landscape with about 9 or 10 headings - type of risk, control risk, hazard etc. under each of the headings are categories. So, for each heading it needs completing for noise, health, asbestos, environment etc.

The amount that can be put in each of the areas varies. For instance, under health and hazard there could be lots of information but under noise and hazard you could have little or no information.

Currently, the table jumps all over the place. I can't keep information together. Even if I do a repeat on header rows, the separate elements underneath it can make it difficult to follow.

Can I create some kind of form in Word or Excel into which users can enter data and the cell fits the text entered? The user would also need to save the form and print it out in a readable format.

The form is attached. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. I'm really struggling with where to start. Toyed with using Visual Basic in Word and Excel, a spreadsheet etc. and really getting confused.
