No, in Word you have to protect the entire document (or section) and insert
form fields where you want to permit data entry.

I am wondering if you can protect cells Word tables as you can in Excel
from
unauthorised changes ie. there are certain parts of the table I don't want
users to have access to and type in. In Excell you just protect the cells
but I can't find the same in Word. Please Help.
