editing forms
It's in the [Developer Tab] in the [Protect Document Group] - I assume your developer tab is installed on the ribbon, but if it's not you'll have to turn it on. I do not know why MS made this so complicated. You have to tell people to select "restrict formatting" in order to turn the restrictions off and now a password dialog box pops up too. For a basic form, all most people need is a button that says "enter data in the form" (!!!) For pete's sake!

Can you provide me with further assistance?

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Carol" wrote in message ... i recently learned how to create a form. I now need to edit the form, but it appears to be locked. Under Protected Document, i have originally selected Unrestricted Access, which is still checked. I have created the form in a table in 2007, but saved it in 2003 to send to users who do not have 2007. Any suggestions are welcome. thank you. -- Carol |
