From your odd description, you could use either text content controls which work as place makers for input text (You'll find them on the Developer tab which is not installed by default, so if you have not already done so add it from the built-in ribbon editor), or you could use Macrobutton Fields as placemarkers http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm

A more elegant alternative is to use a VBA userform - http://www.gmayor.com/Userform.htm.
