Default Word forms conversion

Thank you!

Note that a document saved in Word 97-2003 format cannot make use of the new
content controls of Word 2007, which is why those options are greyed out on
the Developer tab. But you can click the Legacy Tools button and insert the
older form fields found there. And you should be able to right-click an
existing form field and choose Properties from the context menu.

I've opened a form (that I created in Word 2003) in Word 2007. It shows
that
there is no restriction on the form when I check the protection settings,
but
I cannot get into design mode - and all the form commands are greyed out.

I have checked all security properties and there is no visible protection
or
lock on the document or the form and it's fields.

How can I get into design mode?
