Formatting a Protected Document

I am using Word 2002.

I have a document that contains a table, this table contains Form Fields,
and I need the document protected... however, I would like the user to have
the ability to add further rows into the table (i.e. if the document/table
was not protected, the user could simply press TAB and a new row would be
created, and if necessary, continuing on to a second page... that is what i
would like to happen, but with the document protected from any other changes
other than the Form Field items).

Can anyone out there give me some guidance?

Thanks
 
This isn't a trivial problem. I would suggest an AutoText entry containing a
table row with formfields. You would need a macro that unprotects the
document, adds the row and fields, and then reprotects the document without
resetting the formfields. You might want to seek help in writing such a
procedure in the vba.beginners newsgroup.
