Default Unprotected document

Hi
I have downloaded a blank application form that I need to complete and there
are grey araes where I type the text in. There is not enough room or space
to do this and I have contacted the company and they have informed me that I
need to 'unprotect the document' by going on tools etc. I am using Word 2007
and there is no tools function so does anyone know how I can get rid of these
grey bits and type freely on the doc.
Many thanks

On the Review tab of the ribbon, the Protect Document button is at the right
end. Click it to open the Protect Document task pane. At the bottom of the pane,
click the Stop Protection button.
