MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / June 2007Lock/password protect formfields
Is there a way to lock/password protect formfields so that no more information can be added/changed? All help is appreciated You could unlink the field -- rendering it plain text. Or you could toggle the Enabled property to False. Bear  SignatureWindows XP, Word 2000 Plain text would not help. If I toggle the enabled property to False, it erases what currently exists in the form field Would you know of anyway via which I could lock it so that when I send the document to the end user he/she cannot change the information that exists in the locked cells? > You could unlink the field -- rendering it plain text. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > -- > Windows XP, Word 2000 Rachitm: In Word 2000, when I execute this statement from the immediate window, the field value is not reset, but the field is "locked" in the sense that the insertion point can't be positioned in it. activedocument.FormFields("Text1").Enabled = False You are talking about a VBA solution, aren't you?
