Re: Protect form filling in a table

I suspect you have added the new text content controls from the Developer
tab? Change these for the text form fields from the Legacy controls also on
that tab (or better still see
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Classic%20Form%20Controls.htm ). Then when the
form is protected for forms you will only be able to enter text in the form
fields and nowhere else that is protected.

Is it possible to protect forms in a table in word 2007?
I have created a table with some questions in one column and in the
second column I have entered some text form fields, but when I go to
protect the document for filling in forms only it still allows you to
edit and type in the whole of the document?
