Form document set-up
Not sure if you can do this in word, but I am trying to set up a form
document which would enable anyone to enter information but would keep certain parts of the document potentially locked. For example - Board minutes for a non-profit - Much of the content would not change from meeting to meeting so you could keep that as part of the "locked" part of the document. Only certain areas of the document would either be changed or information/text could be inserted. |
