Developing a Template - Questions on Instructions to the User

We are creating/updating a template for a business request plan.

1) We are looking for a way to include instructions/suggestions to the
writer about what information should be included at specific points and
suggesting additional types of information for including.

2) We want to have this visable to the writer while they are composing it,
but should not be included in the printing of the "final" document.
- Current version has text boxes with instructions to writer to
delete prior
to going final, but it IS NOT WORKING and have gotten many comments
about having to delete "all" these instruction.
- There are some concerns that if the user has the option to "turn it
off"
(to make it not visable), that they will readily ignore it/forget
that it is
there to aid them with the document.
- Desire to have the solution keep it simple, so the Word uninformed
do not feel lost/confused.

Is hidden text the best solution, or are there better solutions with Word to
fix this?

Thank you in advance for your assistance,
Mike
