Section Breaks in a protected document
I am creating a fill-in form that is protected to only allow fill-in
information. At the end of the form, I have inserted a picture that the physician would like to be able to edit (i.e. - draw lines to certain parts to decribe a medical condition). I inserted a section break on each side to separate it from the remainder of the document - however, the only edit that word allows is text edits. How can I get Word to allow me to insert a text box or draw a line to the figure? -- Sonja Holmes |

Section Breaks in a protected document
Hi Sonja,
You can't do that in a protected document. However, if you put the image in an unprotected document linked to your form, you make the edits there and have them automatically reflected in the form. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Sonja Holmes" wrote in message ...

Section Breaks in a protected document
Hi Sonja,
You'd create the image document, then insert an INCLUDETEXT field in your form pointing to the image document. If you put the link to the image document in an unprotected Section of your form, you could also insert a hyperlink there so that the user could click on it to open the image document for editing. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Sonja Holmes" wrote in message ...

Probably because I spend too much time playing around with Word to see what I can do that it doesn't want to let me. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Sonja Holmes" wrote in message ...
