protect document
Hi There!
I am trying to protect a document in Word 2003 (Selected fields), but if use the following path: Tools Protect Document click step 2 "Editing Restrictions Click "Allow only this type of editing in this document" Select "Filling in fields" from the drop down menu, Step 3 is not highlighted to allow me to "Start Enforcement". I'm think it must be something so obvious, but I have spent so much time looking for the obvious things, I'm completely stuck now. Can anyone help with this? Thanks, Karina Ashboth Also, I did protect this document previously but I unprotected (With my password to make a minor change - splitting a cell to add text), now I can't re-lock.... |

Ha ha, yes, that's where I'm stuck...
I just don't get it. If I hadn't spent so much time on this document I would start again. Thanks anyway. "Idaho Word Man" wrote: OK, so much for the obvious solutions....
