Default Is there a way to lock the margins in Word?

But it probably wouldn't prevent users from dragging the margin markers on
the ruler.

Hi Deirdre,

You could insert a macro like the following into the document's template:

Private Sub FilePageSetup()
MsgBox "Sorry, that option is not allowed with this document",
vbExclamation
End Sub

The above macro intercepts the FilePageSetup action.

Hello, I've created an electronic version of the company stationary and
I'd like to lock the margins so they cannot inadvertently be altered to
invade the white space of the corporate logo that resides in the left
hand margin mid-way down the page. If there is no way of locking the
margins - is there any way of allowing the end user to edit the body of
the document only and not touch the margins, headers, footers?
