Default how do I restrict formatting in Word 2007?

Thanks, Graham. Actually, I figured it out ... I created a template for
technical reports, and wanted to limit the changes that could inadvertently
be made to fonts, style, and required information, (similar to the IEEE
template). There's an option under Styles that restricts the changes that can
be made to any style in use in a document. I renamed the styles I wanted to
keep "locked, " chose the option to restrict the formatting, and password
protected it. I'm hoping that does the trick. Testing so far last night
worked, but I'll find out how it works in practice today.
