I have tried the macro posted but I can't figure it out for the life of me,
it just won't work. I have spent 2 days on it and am fed up! I am creating
a password protected form for people to use. They need spellcheck for the
filled in blanks only. I am the only one with the password that can change
the form. Can someone please do it for me so I don't have to worry about it
any more. I just want it to work!!!! I know how to do very simple macros
only. I want it to work on other computers where the people will be filling
it out.

We are using Word 2003.

I assume you mean the macro at
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Macros...ProtectDoc.htm.
You need to add your password to the reprotection command.

'Re-protect the document
oDoc.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True

With a password:
'Re-protect the document
oDoc.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True,
Password:="MyPassword"

Replace the MyPassword between the quotation marks with your password. Note,
that should all be one line.

Oops, you will also need the password in the unprotect statement.

'Now unprotect the document
oDoc.Unprotect

should be:

'Now unprotect the document
oDoc.Unprotect Password:="MyPassword"
