Default Locking sections of text in Word

Is it possible to lock sections of text in a Word document (Word 2003)? We
have important shared documents which contain a few merge fields to
personalise them. We would like to 'fix' the main text so this cannot be
changed except by perhaps one user but still for it to be possible for others
to change the merge fields, print the docs etc.

Is this possible? Thank you.

Have you looked in Word Help on the subject?:
