I need to create several forms and would like them to be tab-enabled so you
can type information in the blanks without everything moving. I have
searched books and cannot find the information.

I don't know about books but there are several excellent websites with
tutorials for how to create forms in Word.

The forms must be protected using 'Forms' type protection for them to be
"tab-enabled". See the Word help topics on "forms protection" for more
information.

especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.
