Default Form fields

You are welcome. However I am surprised that Greg didn't have this on his
download on his site ... especially as I have been recommending this page on
the assumption that he did . I have given him a nudge in the right
direction.

Hello Graham

Sorry to be such a pain. What I meant to say, is that I have followed
all it said in the article from Greg, pasted the text into the UI editor
and nothing has happened, there is still not anything to lock a form on
the toolbar, even after restarting Word and the computer. When I tried
to delete the template and start again, it would not let me remove it in
Word as it said the file was being used, so its obviously there. I
deleted in in Windows explorer and started again, but nothing appears on
the ribbon. Any ideas.

I think you may be confusing the contents of two posts. I don't recall
giving you any code to enter into the UI editor? The UI Editor is a
means whereby you can edit the ribbon.

As for the forms tools, you can copy and paste the ribbon code from
Greg Maxey's web site -
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Classic%20Form%20Controls.htm which adds the
ribbon modifications in the developer tab.

If you have done this, then you need to restart Word to load the add-in
template. You will see the extra commands on the Developer Tab.

Graham
Can I ask for your help again please. I have downloaded the editor,
created a template, saved it in the start up, opened it in the editor
and pasted in the text on the link you gave me and I cannot see that
anything has changed on the button bar. nothing has changed in the
form section, still no lock template. Any ideas what I have done
wrong.

You will find http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Classic%20Form%20Controls.htm
useful when working with protected forms in Word 2007.

I am not a new Word user but a new user to Word 2007. I have created
forms in Word 2003, put in the fields and locked them. I cannot find
how to now create new forms and lock and unlock the ones I have. The
computer is about to go through the window !!!! Can anyone help
please. Also there does not seem to be a help button anywhere to find
out these things. Would be very grateful for some help please.

Margaret
