Can I protect part of a document with Track Changes ?

Correct, you can only apply (ie Turnon - off) TC to the whole document.
Can you explain further what exactly you want to setup, then someone maybe
able to help. Also what verion of Word you are using would help as well.

Thanks Dean,

I'm designing a contract in "Word 97-2003".

I want the header, and signature boxes at the bottom, to be unprotected free
format (for an Account Manager and or Client to enter details).

But I wish to have track changes in the the actual text of the contract to
highlight where changes have been made/requested. The "Filling in Forms"
protection, while offering sections, prohibits changes totally.

Any way around this?
 
As you say, Fillin Forms does not allow Track Changes and I have never had
the need to do so.
There maybe a macro solution but that could be more complex than the benefit.
All the best
