Default tables and protection

Hi

We have created some tables- with 7 columns and 2 rows. One row is a title
row and the next row is a continues - some table over 3 pages in length. we
want the users to fill in 3 columns-- lining up with the information in the
other columns. when I put a password protection on so they can only type in
the 3 columns-- it slows down to a near halt.

Is there a better way to set the tables up so when the the protection is on
it doesn't nearly stop?

Should we use a different program for this?

Thank-you!

Default tables and protection

If the information needs to line up horizontally, then you should
probably be using a table with lots of rows, not one row that breaks
over three pages.
