I created a form with input fields in Word, but noticed post restriction that my down arrow key will move my cursor to the lower field rather than the lower line in the input field after I have typed some lines. Is there a place in Word that allows you to control the arrow navigation keys? I only want the tab keys to move you to the next field, not the arrow keys. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

You are using the new content controls, I assume? In a protected document, the Up and Down arrow keys move between content controls. If you leave the document unprotected, you can use the arrows as usual (and note that content controls do not require protection)?
