Instead of using the padlock button on the Forms toolbar, use Tools |
Protect Document. In Word 2000, the user should get a fairly straightforward
dialog that allows him to select which sections to protect. It's a bit more
complicated in Word 2003, but that won't affect him.

I'm corresponding with another user, trying to help him design a survey.
He
is using the forms toolbar, and has put a bunch of checkboxes (in a table)
in section 1, followed by a continuous section break that includes a few
questions for free text entry by the respondents.
When locking the form, it doesn't provide the option to only lock section
1,
so the whole form ends up locked and when the user clicks on the questions
in section 2 to provide free-form answers, the visible document
automatically pops back to the top of the document.
Can someone share the trick to keeping different sections unlocked?
I'm using Word2003, the person I'm helping I think is using Word 2000.
Thanks!
Keith
