When I create a document, with the Developer, with fields to be "filled in"
by others, and I click on Protect Document, the selection fields and boxes
are all greyed out. This is a NEW problem, I've been able to use this
feature before, on my own laptop and others'. Any ideas? What am I missing?

Are you sure they're "greyed out" as in "not enabled"? By default, text form
fields are shaded when they _are_ active. (There's a shading button in the same
group with the forms control buttons on the Developer ribbon, which turns the
shading on and off.)
