i have tried sending to the back but did not work

Access can't put controls ontop of some active content. Do you really need to use Word document? I think you do not change it often, if you are going to put some controls on it.

You can use a form background image for your purposes, i think.

If you need to modify word document in fact, you can do this with VB - its not hard. Using VB you can open word template, put some field values in desired places and save / or print.
