Sorry, no.

Thanks Charles. The section break did allow me to protect part of the page
but the ink still would not work on the unprotected section.

Any ideas where to go next?

You can protect a section and not protect another section in Word

Word 2003).
For more about sections and section breaks, see

What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check
this
in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at

Hope this helps,

I bought a new tablet PC to create a form that a customer can sign but
to
my
dismay when I protect a document for forms I can't use the ink tools. I
did
read that I protect only a portion of a document but can't figure out
how
to
do it. I read one review that said that the feature to protect part of
a
document is "broken" in Word 2003.

The ideal solution would be of course that Microsoft would add a
control
to
accept ink in a protected document.

Any help?
