Re: Text and CheckBox macros in Protected form

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

You are using the TextBox and CheckBox "ActiveX" controls...which work
differently than the form fields. You do not protect a doc like this.
These controls don't work under protection like form fields.

Good luck...
