Lock text in header/footer
I tried to use form field in header/footer and failed. I am creating a form
in Word 2002, but like to have text in header/footer "locked" so user cannot change from header/footer. If I put the same info on each page, the information will be repositioned since the fill in the blank box is expandable. Any recommendation how to achieve this effect since header/footer does not allow form field. |

Lock text in header/footer
If the information appears anywhere on the page, you can use a StyleRef
field to insert it in the header/footer; see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/StyleRef.htm -- Suzanne S.

Lock text in header/footer
I am a novice to StyleRef. Need time to figure out your suggestion, however I
discover form fields created in document body can be inserted as bookmark in the header, but raised another problem which I posted "bookmark in header". For the same doc I am working on , I have a version#/date in the footer which are not form fields or data. Is there a way to lock plain text in the footer other than applying StyleRef?
