I define a text field into a form as "number" but when filling the form Word
lets me enter letters into the field.
How can I avoid that?.

Don't try. Character-by-character filtering is beating your head against a
wall. Let the user enter whatever they like then validate on completion.

Thank you very much for your advice. I have one more message posted
concerning forms in Word. I'd appreciate if you have a look at it.
