I can't modify "formating restrictions" or "editing restrictions" on a form
in the Developer tab>Protect Document. They and the "Start enforcement"
checkbox are greyed and disabled. Any thoughts on how I can enable them so I
can lock the sheet?

Click to expand...

If the Design Mode button on the Developer tab of the ribbon is turned on,
click it to turn it off.

Thank you, 2007 has changed so much, it is difficult to know what is where
and how to do what was once familiar.
