word template

[word padlock checkbox]

I have a template with text, tables, fillinfields and checkboxes. I have
locked the template with the padlock. The problem is that the users want to
copy and paste some sections. That is not possible whith a locked template.
If I unlock it, it's not possible to click in the checkboxes. Are there a
simple solution or do i have to write som code?

A document that requires free editing is not ideally suited for use as a
form. You could insert unprotected sections, if you must, but there are
probably better ways of achieving your aims - e.g. by use of Macrobutton
fields - see http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm or better still by
creating a userform to collect the data and write it into the document.
