Have you selected the type of protection to be applied? What version of
Word?

It is Word 2003.... I selected the "Editing Restrictions" (No. 2) for
"Filling In Forms," but it won't let me select "Start Enforcement" after I do
this.

It normally does.

Try using a macro with the command

ActiveDocument.Protect wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset
