I am using Word 97, have created a form that needs to be
protected, but then the hyperlinks to another word doc do
not work. Can I protect the document and still have
hyperlinks?

Hi Jim,

There are a couple of methods you can use to create a
hyperlink in a protected form. One is to create unprotected
sections and place the hyperlink there. Another is to
use a macro with a Macrobutton.

See if the process by my friend Cindy Meister is helpful to yo.
