Protecting sections w/ imported excel spreadsheets
In my document is a form that contains checkboxes. That form needs to be
protected so the checkboxes will work. I added section breaks to protect that section only, but it effects the other spreadsheets in other sections of the document that I copied and pasted from excel (paste special so they act as spreadsheets and calculate data), even though I applied protection only to the section containing the checkboxes. Now, the spreadsheets don't open when they are double clicked. |

Protecting sections w/ imported excel spreadsheets
Hi ?B?THVjeQ==?=,
In my document is a form that contains checkboxes. That form needs to be protected so the checkboxes will work. I added section breaks to protect that section only, but it effects the other spreadsheets in other sections of the document that I copied and pasted from excel (paste special so they act as spreadsheets and calculate data), even though I applied protection only to the section containing the checkboxes. Now, the spreadsheets don't open when they are double clicked. Make sure the spreadsheets have the text wrap formatting (graphics formatting) "inline with text". As soon as text is wrapped they're placed in a layer of the document that's totally locked out when forms protection is activated. If you need to have text wrap around them, insert them into FRAMES. You'll find the Insert/Frame command in the Forms toolbar.
