Locked Fields

[Guest]

I have created a form using Word 2000 Office. The form uses 'tick boxes'
'dropdowns etc'. Is there any way that when form is unlocked and then locked
again that one doesn't lose all the information in the fields?

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/TurnFmFlfResetOff.htm. What you are
talking about is what Word calls an "online form." For more about online
forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at

Hope this helps,
