Default How can I create an expandable table in a protected form?

There's an example at http://www.gmayor.com/word_vba_examples.htm

I suspect that you are right: a macro is needed. I believe a common
workaround is to have a macro unprotect the form, make the desired
changes, and then reprotect it, but you should ask in a programming
newsgroup such as microsoft.public.word.vba.general for more
knowledgeable assistance.

Stefan,

Thank you for your reply. I did think of that, but unfortunately I
do need
the table to be protected also. My feeling is the functionality I
want is only possible by writing a macro, and I don't know VB. Any
other ideas would
be welcome!

The easiest solution is to place the table in an unprotected
section of the
form; then users can add rows as they would in an unprotected table.
Note,
however, that they will also be able to edit the table, which may
not be what you want.

I want to create a protected form for users to fill out, and I
need the users
to be able to add/delete rows to a table without unprotecting the
form. Can
anyone tell me how to do this?
