Lock Graphic

[Brenda from Michigan]

Word 2003

User wants to create a letterhead template with graphics in the header and
footer. However, she wants to lock those so people using the template cannot
copy or reuse those graphics. Is there any way to do this other than Protect
the document as a Form and use fields to enter the text? TIA!

Does this also lock the footer as the user requested? I'm not a programmer
do I don't understand what I'm seeing in the code.

The description above the macro says, "The following code, pasted into the
This Document module of a Word 2000 Template, will keep users out of the
header and footer of documents based on that template." So yes, I would
assume it locks the footer as well.

Yes, it does lock both headers and footers.

The part that does it is the three-line statement in the last macro

Case wdEvenPagesFooterStory, wdEvenPagesHeaderStory, _
wdFirstPageFooterStory, wdFirstPageHeaderStory, _
wdPrimaryFooterStory, wdPrimaryHeaderStory

This is the list of the places that are locked. They include all the
possible headers and footers in each section of the document.

Thank you Suzanne and Jay. I missed the part in the description because I
was concentrating on the name of the document which does not list footer.
Thank you so much for the information. I appreciate your time and effort.
