form

I am trying to create a protected form in MS Word 2007. However, once created it won't tab between the text fields, or from a text field to the next field, it only tabs inside of the text fields. It will tab to the next field for everything else, ie date boxes, list boxes, etc.

I have tried using the Rich Text control, the Plain Text control, the Text Form field and the Text Box control and it all does the same thing.
