How do I unrestrict selected columns in a protected document?
I need help setting up a checklist where only three coulmns thru out the
checklist can be updated. The rest of the document I want to be protected. How do I go about doing this? The proctect tab for my program says I can check off sections of the checklist to be unprotected, but it won't let me specify specific sections like a column. |

Sorry, in any version of Word before 2003, this can't be done at all. In those versions, you can only protect or unprotect a whole section, and you can't put section breaks inside a table. In Word 2003 you can protect the whole document, and then select the three columns and allow editing for them. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
