Default Lock Formatting in Word Document

Hello -

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to lock a word documents format? I
would like to allow users to only enter text, but not change any of the
formats.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!!!

Are you describing a protected form? If so, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and especially
the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.
