word97 HELP...please

I have a form that I need to use for a client and can not get it to set right.  They sent me the form which has their logo down the entire left side.  They want me to start the dictation at approximately 1.75 or 2" from the left and 0.5 from the top.  I opened the document, set the margins and did the "saved as" so I could use it as a template, but when I started typing, it did not wrap around or stop at the margin, but went all the way over to the left side through their log.  I tried moving the tabs things at the top and setting it at the 2" and when I looke at the print preview it looked good, but when I typed, again, it did not do a wrap around, but went all the way to the left margin....HELP...very new to using word97 like this as never really used forms, always had templates given to me...

thank you for any ANY help...

not sure if this is right place, but HELPPPPP......

when I am working in word97 or any word I guess, under tools do I have the Stedman dictionary checked or the custom dictionary checked.  How do I know which should be done?  

feeling frustrated

All of my accounts and clients are in Word97.  I was from the old school of wp5.1 so took me a long time to transition forms over to word97.  I was wondering if anyone working originally in 97 could tell me what the differences could be and how hard transitioning forms, etc could be. 

I seem to be getting a lot of error boxes all of a sudden with word97 and was just thinking may be time to move up....

thank you for any help in this matter

I want to "upgrade" from word97 to word2003.  Is there a way to take my dictionary of words I have established over the years over to 2003?

and is there a way to go in and correct words put in wrong...

thank you for any help

Hi,

  I have to use a form where I have the patient name and dob on the same line.  BUT when I type in the patient name, it moves the DOB over every time.  I then have to back it up to have it formatted right.  Could someone please tell me how I can get this to NOT keep moving?  I remember having this problem on a form I converted from word5.1  to 97 several years ago and someone here helped me with something that fixed that.  Please if anyone knows how to fix this would be such a time saver as some days I am doing this for 80 patient files.....urghhhhhh.

thank you.
