Need to use ink on a protected Word doc.
Please help me. I need to allow customers to sign a protected document with a
stylus. Is there no way to allow this in Word? What about section breaks. What about pdfing the data i want protected and inserting it into Word as a graphic and then adding form fields? Is that an option? Can i even insert fields over a graphic? HELP! thanks mucho |

HELP! thanks mucho I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "sign [..]with a stylus." What kind of infrastructure are you expecting your customers to have? If they need to sign this by hand, then, well, they need to print it out and sign it, and get it back to you either by scnanner/email, fax, or snailmail. 2cents Robert -- /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | MS \ / | MVP X Against HTML | for / \ in e-mail & news | Word |

karinam means that users need to use "ink" on a Tablet PC or other similar
graphical input device. You've probably used something similar when you've had to sign on a pressure-sensitive pad for a delivered package or a credit card transaction. -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne, that is exactly what I am talking about. Do you have any suggestions
or workarounds for this? I would be grateful. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: karinam means that users need to use "ink" on a Tablet PC or other similar graphical input device.

No, I'm afraid all I know is what you're asking, not the answer. Sorry.

I would be grateful. warningI have no personal experience with Tablet PCs [just in case that did not become obvious by my first post in this thread :-)]!/warning I just gather from a glimpse into Usenet archives and Helpfiles that there are different types of ink you can paint in Word (as Annotations, or as Comments, for instance). Other posts (see for instance #4 in [1]) indicate that, what you'd like to do is not possible with Word 2003 out-of-the-box. There might be 3rd party Add-ins by now, or one could try using existing VBA solutions to unprotect and reprotect forms.

May I suggest asking this question in a Tablet PC newsgroup. They may have
ideas on how to accomplish that. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... No, I'm afraid all I know is what you're asking, not the answer.
