Default Protected Form Fields

I am trying to protect a document, such that section 1, 3 is protected
as read only and Section 2 is protect as form field only. Any idea how
I can do this? I have only been able to protect it one way or the
other, but not both. I think that I may need the use of a Marco however
I am not sure of the code.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Amanda

Default Protected Form Fields

If you protect the document for forms, the only place that the user will be
able to enter data is into the formfields. That is the rest of the document
will be read-only.

Hope this helps.
