So I'm trying to create a form using the content control but I found the form field moved while I was filling one to the left. So I do the obvious thing and use a text box to restrict the placement. But when I apply the protection again I find I can't write in the form field at all. Pls help

Text boxes are rarely a good idea. Can you use a Table to control the positions and text wrapping of content?

Otherwise we can't help without seeing the actual problem.
