I have a document that is I do not protect it will not show or allow drop
downs. When I protect it, the rest of the form cannot be filled out. How do
I unprotect and show these drop downs? Thanks.
 
That's the way protected forms work. You need to insert text form fields
where you want users to be able to insert data. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm and especially
the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.
