OK, I wrote a macro which allows me to spellcheck text in
form fields. How do I attach it to the document so that
when my coworkers open it on their computers, it will run
there?

See http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/MacrosVBA/SpellcheckProtectDoc.htm for
what is probably a better macro as well as instructions on use.

You can:

Put your macro in a global template on your network that is loaded into
everyone's computer when they start Word.

Put your macro in a template that is the basis for your documents and which
is in a workgroup templates folder that is available to everyone else.

Transfer your macro into your document and hope it isn't shut off by macro
security.

Each of these has different instructions and it would be good to know which
one you would want to be doing before talking about it. My vote would be for
workgroup templates.
