I cannot lock certain text in a word document.
I have a standard letter format for a company. I can not lock the main text,
(i.e.) contact information without having to re-format the document for each letter. Is there a way to lock the master. I am lost. Thanks! |

Start with: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you want
one header on the first page and a different header on other pages. http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This puts the info in your headers and footers (which are not locked but are out of the way). This gives step-by-step instructions. (It also has the following links) Some other pages to look at: Letterhead Tips and Instructions http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial http://addbalance.com/word/download....StylesTutorial Template Basics http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Custom...platePart2.htm If you really need to lock it, check on Word "Online Forms" http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordw...rces.htm#Forms (especially Dian Chapman's articles).
