Default Creating fillable forms in Word

In previous versions of Word (prior to 2007), used to be able to create forms
- text fields, etc. - and then "lock" the form - so that users could only
fill in the form but not change any static, permanent text. Is there still a
"lock" feature in 2007? Not a "protected" form. - I've found that when "form
protection" is used, users cannot use Spell Check, users cannot delete one
word or one character - they're forced to delete the whole paragraph and
start typing all over again.
I just want a simple form, with fillable fields that can be manipulated more
easily by the end-users.
