Default Can we do a mail merge when a document is protected?

We have a variety of "form letters" that are used throughout the
organization, and I would like to be able to protect the body of the letter,
but allow the user to merge from a data table. IE Name, Address, etc can not
be locked.

I tried protecting the document and each of the options in 2002 created a
further problem. Track changes of course show the merged data as changes in
Red. "Comments" won't allow me to use the merge fields and "forms" with only
the correct sections highlighted greys out the option to mail merge the
document.

Any suggestions?
