Default Multiple Text Fields in Form

I'm attempting to create a form. I have multiple fields for this form on one line. This is the case for the majority of the lines and fields on the form. We need to keep this doc to 1 page and there's a ton of info to squeeze onto it. I say this to avoid being told to give each field its own line.

I need to keep the second field on each line from moving when text is getting entered into the first field on the same line. I've attached an example for you to see and hopefully help make it clear what I'm looking for.

In the example when I start typing in a company name the Date of RFP field goes backwards and does not stay where it was originally setup. In essence I'm trying to anchor these fields to their original position regardless of the length of the text entered. I know I've done this before, but I can't get it.



If a macro is needed or VBA please be clear in directions, I'm very much the novice in those areas so something I can follow and then copy and paste would be great.

Thanks!
Rob

Create a table, and put the fields in each cell.

Also, you might want to use separate fields for City/State & Zip.
