I have a template that was created in 2003. Then I did a bunch of updates in
2007 but in compatible mode. In order to do the drop-downs, etc., in tables,
I had to go back to 2003. Now, when I open the template in 2007, lots of
features such as editing the header/footer are not available. Why is that?

It appears that if I use 2003 to edit you can no longer use 2007 for full
editing.

Please let me know what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks,

If this is a protected form, you will find the form tools on Word 2007's
Developer Tab (which is not displayed by default - Word Options Popular).

Only one section is protected. I didn't think it would affect what I could do
in the rest of the document but it sounds like it does?
