To protect a form (or “document” in MS Word terminology):
1. Select the Protect Document item in the Tools menu. The Protect Document dialog will
open.
2. Select the Forms item in the dialog and click OK.
Note. If necessary, you may add password protection to the document.
To remove document protection, select Unprotect Document in the Tools menu. If the document

the Forms toolbar. If this toolbar isn’t displayed, select the Toolbars>Forms item in the View menu:
,
Note. The Text Form Field (
) and the Check Box Form Field (
) buttons on the Forms toolbar can also be used
to create an MS Word-compatible form. Once form protection is enabled on the form itself (and applied to field
headers, explanatory information etc.), the form cannot be edited, and only field texts and values of the Check Box
type may be altered. Switch from one field to the next by using the Tab button (top-to-bottom, left-to-right) or
Shift+Tab (to reverse order). Switch from one line to the next (up and down) by using the arrow keys.
When designing such a form, you can also specify a field entry mask (e.g. maximum field length), which will then
serve to standardize the information entered in the field. For more information on the creation of machine-readable
forms that are to be completed in MS Word, see the MS Word User’s Guide, MS Word Help, or other specialized
literature.
