Default Select Sections Hyperlink in Protect Document Task Pane

I am trying to apply prtection to only a section of my form template in Word
2003, leaving the remainder of the sections available to users to edit at
will. I cannot find the Select Sections hyperlink in the Protect Document
task pane to accomplish this task as in previous versions.

I see a hyperlink for setting styles, establishing users, and restricting
permissions. Can you provide direction to the Select Sections hyperlink since
I do not need heavy-duty protection of the document?

Default Select Sections Hyperlink in Protect Document Task Pane

First you have to check the box for "Allow only this type of editing in the
document." Then you have to select "Filling in forms." Then, assuming you
have actually inserted section breaks so that your document has more than
one section, you should see a blue "Select sections" link.
