Formatting a Protected Document
I am using Word 2002.
I have a document that contains a table, this table contains Form Fields, and I need the document protected... however, I would like the user to have the ability to add further rows into the table (i.e. if the document/table was not protected, the user could simply press TAB and a new row would be created, and if necessary, continuing on to a second page... that is what i would like to happen, but with the document protected from any other changes other than the Form Field items). Can anyone out there give me some guidance? Thanks |

This isn't a trivial problem. I would suggest an AutoText entry containing a
table row with formfields. You would need a macro that unprotects the document, adds the row and fields, and then reprotects the document without resetting the formfields. You might want to seek help in writing such a procedure in the vba.beginners newsgroup. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
