After adding a control to a Word form, I can't protect it anymore.

[Guest]

I have a form created using "Forms toolbar". When I tried to add a controll
from "Controls toolbar", the "Yes, Start Enforcing Protection" button become
grey (disabled). Any ideas why?
Thanks a lot

Well, the point is that ActiveX controls are not intended to be used in
protected forms.
