Protectd Form

[Rita]

I am trying to create a form in Word 07 and have followed all the steps. It
will not allow me to protect it so people can only fill in the blanks. If
anyone can help, I will be so greatful.

On the Developer tab of the Ribbon, click on Protect Document and then in
section 2 of the Restrict Formatting and Editing dialog that will have
appeared, check the box for "Allow only this type of editing in the
document:" and from the drop down list that will have then become enabled,
select "Filling in forms" and then click on the "Yes, Start Enforcing
Protection" button.

You may also want to Customize the Quick Access Toolbar by adding the
Protect Form control from the All commands group.
