Footer in protected document
I am creating a template in Word 2003 which has 2 sections. The first page
is Section 1 which is protected for form fields. Section 2 starting on Page 2, comprises the rest of the document and is unprotected. I would like to have a footer starting in Section 2 (on page 2) throughout the document. This footer must be accessible and changed by the user for each draft worked on. It seems that even if part of a document is protected, the headers/footers are unavailable. How can I unprotect the footer starting in section 2? Thanks! Ricki |

Footer in protected document
Note that if the footer should only reflect text added to the document (such
as "version 3, created September 10, 2009"), you can apply a style to that piece of text in the document and then, in the footer, insert a STYLEREF field pointing to that style. That way, users wouldn't have to edit the actual footer contents. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ricki Miles" wrote in message ... I am creating a template in Word 2003 which has 2 sections.
