Default Is it possible to creat a form and only lock part of the page.

If you have a Section Break after the form part of the page, and only apply
protection to the section containing the form, the text after the section
break will not be protected. There are however some restrictions on the
capabilities of Word with respect to that text - Spelling Checking, access
to Headers and Footers etc.

Hope this helps.

You tab or click to it, with the document protected but the section
unprotected.

After entering the section break and protecting the upper portion of my form,
I cannot tab or click on the bottom section to type. Any other suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Did you select protection for Section 1 only, leaving Section 2 unprotected?
