I created a template that has both protected and
unprotected sections. I can move from a field in the
protected section to a field in the unprotected section,
by using the tab key. However, if I hit the tab key once
in the unprotected section it adds line instead of moving
to the next field, which is in another protected
section. How do I set the document up so I can move out
of the unprotected section back into the next protected
section?

This would require a macro (to do the moving) and you'd also
need to dynmically remap the TAB key to use this macro or
its default behavior, depending on where the focus is in the
document.

For an example on remapping a key in a user form, see this
