Default Form Fields

I have a question about making form fields in Word and am not sure if this is the correct place to post.

I have a document that I want to add Text Form Fields to for a user to tab through and fill in, but cannot change the length.

EXAMPLE:

This agreement made and entered into this __________ day of ___________, 20__, between

Where the bold part is the fill in, but the line that is being filled in cannot change.



Can someone please help? Thanks so much!

To achieve something like that, you'd need to use tab-stops between the formfields so that the text following each one always starts at the same place.
