Default Templates-Locking

Use a custom toolbar with a button or menu item that calls your macro. BTW
macrobutton fields do work in protected forms, but not hyperlinks.

You can protect only parts of a form, but there are better ways of
accomplishing what you want. What you are talking about is what Word calls
an "online form." Check this in help. For more about online forms, follow
the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at

Hope this helps,

Is there a way to lock only parts of a template? I would like give the
person filling out the form the option to click a button and email the
form
back to me. HELP????

I have if the template is unlock a hyperlink will work to email the
template. Once the template is locked the email link won't work.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
