I want to create a form which has an introduction section with some general
and protected form fields. Then an unprotected table, which can grow by using
the tab function when in the last cell of the table. Finally I want a closing
and protected section with room for some standard information.
I have tried to introduce section breaks before and after my table. But
protecting the form takes effect on the whole form.
Any good ideas??

You can protect individual sections, if you protect for forms from the tools
menu, but whether this will allow you to do what you want is another matter.
Protection incurs some limitations on what can be done in a document. If you
want to maintain usability you should consider a different approach - eg
macrobutton fields http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm or userforms Word
MVP FAQ - Userforms http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms.htm to collect and
insert your data.
