I am using Word 2007 and have created my own template. I want the users to be
able to unprotect the document for other changes once the form is filled in.
However, when I unlock the document, it still will only allow the form fields
to be edited.
This form is for inter office use employees will fill in form, but sections
of the form will not pertain to all customers; therefore, they will need to
delete sections of the form once the rest is filled in.
Is this possible?

How are you "unlocking" the document?

developer tab - restrict formatting - allow forms editing, then when I'm
done, I just unrestrict formatting.
