Default Forms Question

Greetings,

I have a Word 2000 documect that contains a form. The form has lines to fill
out as well as boxes to check. If you protect the documect, the boxes are
available to check, however, you cannot fill in the lines. If you unprotect
the document, the boxes are not available, however, you can fill in the
lines.

What can I do so both the boxes ans lines are available at the same time?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Ray

Replace the lines with text form fields, then protect the document.

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...nesInForms.htm for
more suggestions.
