Why does my "form" delete my info after changing a field?

I've created a "form" with fields for data, text. If I decide I want to
change something, unprotect document and make my change. When I click on
Protect Form--all data previously entered goes away and is replaced with the
field box.

Any suggestions
 
Use the following macro to re-protect the form:

ActiveDocument.Protect wdAllowOnlyFormfields, NoReset
