Word 2003 - Creating “sections†that are not locked in a Word form

[The Chomp]

Good Day;

I tried to post this before, but have not see it yet. I will try again. I
think I waited long enough

In word 2000 I was able to create “sections†of a form that I could exclude
from being locked. I can not seem to find a way of doing this in Word 2003.
This is what I am trying to do.

I have created a from that also includes some instructions. Included in the
instructions is an e-mail link. When I lock the form, I am not able to use
the e-mail link.

Any suggestions?

Thanks All

Regards

Chomp

Hello All;

I have determined how to add an e-mail (sort of) button. I just created a
text form field and added the hyperlink. When I locked the form I was still
able to use the link.

Still have not figured out the "section" part

In Word 2000, the Tools > Protect Document command opened a dialog in which
there was a Sections button to let you remove protection from specific
sections. In Word 2003, that command opens a task pane. After you set the
dropdown for "Filling in forms", and only if the document contains two or
more sections (separated by section breaks), there will be a blue "Select
sections" link below the dropdown. Click that link to get the dialog where
you can uncheck sections that you don't want to protect.

that will load when clicked.
