I want to password protect a forms document, but the "protect document" task
pane won't allow me to enter a password. The editing restriction check off
box is gray. I cannot enter anything to set parameters to protect the
document.

First make sure your document hasn't been set as a main document for
mail merge. On the Mail Merge toolbar click "Main document setup" and
make sure "Normal Word document" is selected.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
