Hi Sue,
The feature is still there, it just looks a little different.
Select Tools > Protect Document or otherwise display the Protect
Document task pane. Check the box for "allow only this type of
editing" and select "Filling in forms" in the dropdown. Then (assuming
the document already contains at least one section break) a blue link
"Select sections" will appear below the dropdown, and clicking it gets
you the old section selection dialog.
If you don't like this, you can get the entire old Protect Document
behavior back. Open the Tools > Customize dialog. Click "All commands"
in the categories list. Scroll the commands list to find
ToolsProtectUnprotectDocument and drag it to either a toolbar or the
Tools menu. Right-click it and change its name if you want. (You can
drag off the one that's already on the menu, which has the same
display name, to avoid confusion.) You'll still have to use the task
pane if you want to play with the new non-forms protection mode.
