'enforce protection' button not working
I am trying to protect a 'filling in form' that I created. However the
'start enforcing protection' button is inactive both on the forms toolbar & the pull down menu under 'tools protect document'. Not sure why this is happening, since I had tried doing this earlier this week & it worked. Thanks! |

'enforce protection' button not working
Does the form contain ActiveX controls as well as form fields?

Are you working in Design Mode?..if so, exit Design Mode and you should be
able to protect the form. "tipu" wrote: No. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Does the form contain ActiveX controls as well as form fields? -- Suzanne S.
