Sounds like what you want is a protected form, created using form fields.
See

especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.

I am using Word 2003. I am using the term "field" because I don't know
what
else to call it. I want to create a form that will be filled out, but
protect the line names and headings. I found a template that does it -
the
Market Research Survey template that I down loaded. It is using a command
for the "field" that I have not seen before - it uses the little zero
(degree
symbol). Any informatin on how to do this, or what it is called would be
greatly appricated. Thank you.
