Just to let you all know, I kinda fixed Sue's template and sent it back to
her and she's gonna use the one I made for now.  But, I am OFFICIALLY
submitting this to Dian here as my contribution to the pile of "wishes" she
is taking to the summit.  PLEASE, Dian....can you bring this one to their
attention?

My wish is that Word text fields would allow you to select specific text
when they are inside a table.

Anyway, for those who want to know the workaround I came up with...here it
is...it took me about 4 minutes to do:

I deleted the table
I recreated a new table with two columns and two rows. 
I put the headings and text fields she had in here in these four table cells
Below this table, I added the third set of heading and text field (the only
one she said she needed to accept text more than one line long and the only
one where she was having the problem)...I put this below the table, outside
the table
Then I just highlighted everything and copied it and pasted it a bunch of
times below this.

She reported back to me that it works fine.
