I am trying to create forms for my private mental health counselor agency.
The forms are things that I will be using on my computer. I created a
format
and used the text fields and then protected the form. I have found that
when
the form is protected, the spell check does not work. It only seems to
work
when the document is unprotected. Is there a way to keep the form
protected
but still have the spell check work like on a normal word document??
