prevent fill in fields from moving

[georgia_snwflake]

in a form, i added a fill in field, selected 16 max characters. but when
testing to see if it worked, i was able to keep typing and the text would
wrap to the next line. any ideas what i'm doing wrong and how to correct
would be great

Hi =?Utf-8?B?Z2VvcmdpYV9zbndmbGFrZQ==?=,

in a form, i added a fill in field, selected 16 max characters. but when
testing to see if it worked, i was able to keep typing and the text would
wrap to the next line.

We need more information

1. Version of Word

2. Is the "fillin field" a textbox field from the Forms toolbar, or
something else?

3. Did you protect the document as a form before trying to type in the
field?
