Default CAN I PASSWORD PROTECT MY HEADER AND FOOTER

I want to protect the footer of a document that I created so the author can
not be manipulated by someone else. Is it a way I can just put a password on
the header and footer of my document and allow other changes to be made to my
document by others?

Hi Sherry,

If you insert a section break right at the start of your document, then use
Tools|Protection|Forms and, with the 'Sections' button, deselect the second
(and any later) sections, users won't have access to either the header or
the footer.

You should be aware, though, that this disables a lot of other functionality
too, as you'll see by the numerous menu items that get greyed out.

Cheers
