I have forms that can not be changed from their orginal layout that I scan
into word. Once scanned into word I make them into mail merge documents that
use an access database as the data source. The original forms have lines
where someone would hand write the information. I am trying to put the merge
fields above or on these "lines".  The lines just shift and the merge fields
are inserted before the "lines" changing the original layout of the document.
Is there any way to keep the original format of the line and place the merge
field above the line. (like someone has typed the information on that line).
i would appreciate any suggestions.
