Hi All,

I am using Word 2000. I have created a template as follows:
section 1 unprotected and containing form fields.
Section 2 protected and has check boxes.

Can someone tell me why, when I protect ONLY section 2, the F11 Go To
Next Field function stops working in section 1? Is this an undocumented
feature :)

Thanks and Cheers,
Ratcliff

note: this was also posted on public.word group which keeps being
unavailable. sorry for any confusion

A lot of stuff does not work as expected once a document is protected
for forms, even in unprotected sections.

There's an overview article for this somewhere in the KB, but sadly I've
trouble locating it right now. But maybe the following helps:
