Default Adding the screendump/clipboard to a locked form in Word

I am trying to create a form so send to clients so that they detail the
minimum information that we need about what they did to get an error (which
of our systems their using, software versions, etc all in drop down boxes)
but also need a shot of their screen for the error message for our
application that they get.

But can't paste in the clipboard to a locked form

Also has fields that they don't always send to us such as contact phone
numbers, full name, etc. to act as a prompt.

I have no trouble pasting *text* from the Clipboard into a form field (using
Ctrl+V), but even if it were possible to paste a picture, I would still
strongly advise that you make the text in your error messages copyable
(using Ctrl+C) so that users wouldn't have to use a screen shot. You'll cut
down file sizes considerably if they can copy and paste the text instead of
a picture.
