How can I get an easy way to cycle through textboxes?

I am making a form on Word 2003 which uses a combination of textboxes,
tickboxes, option buttons and drop-down menus.
What I have noticed is that when filling out the form, you have to manually
click with the mouse on each box, rather than just pressing tab or enter to
go to the next one. This is obviously very time consuming.
Is there a function or property I can change to acheive this? Please note
that these forms will be saved as a Word 97-2002 file, so it can't have any
macros in it.

thanks

Thanks Anne,

However, I cannot use the form toolbar as there doesn't seem to be a
function which freezes the size of a textbox. Although you can limit
characters, if someone presses enter inside the box, it will start a new line.
With the texboxes on the controol toolbox you can stop this from happening.

Is there a solution to have these type of textboxes, as well as textboxes
you can cycle through with tab?

thanks again
Leon
