Help! Word form section protection

[Guest]

I'm trying to protect only one section in a Word document/form, but can't get
the "protect document" to allow me to protect sections (I can only protect
the whole document). When I choose Tools >> Protect Document... I get a task
pane that has three options/steps: 1. Formatting restrictions, 2. Editing
restrictions, and 3. Start enforcement. I do not see the dialog window (that
some have mentioned on this forum), which should allow me to "Protect
document for: tracked changes, comments or forms (with a 'sections' button
that allows me to specify which sections I want to protect)."

I'm using Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.6113.5703).

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Nevermind! I found my answer in a post from Jay Freedman...

When you choose Tools > Protect Document and the Protect Document task pane
opens, for Word 2003: under the heading, "2. Editing restrictions," select
"Filling in forms" in the dropdown on the task pane, then the "Select
Sections" link appears below it. Click that, and uncheck the section(s) that
shouldn't be protected.

Thanks, Jay!!!
