Default editing forms

Click the Protect Document button at the right end of the Review tab, and
you'll find the Restrict Formatting and Editing item on the dropdown menu.
That opens a task pane to the right of the document. There should be a "Stop
Protection" button at the bottom of the pane.

I was able to fix the problem when I worked on the file at home
because I use 2003, but I canno locate Restrict Formattting and
Editing on my 2007 version at work. Can you provide me with further
assistance? Thanks.

Click on Restrict Formatting and Editing and you will then see a
button to Unprotect the document.

i recently learned how to create a form. I now need to edit the
form, but it
appears to be locked. Under Protected Document, i have originally
selected Unrestricted Access, which is still checked.

I have created the form in a table in 2007, but saved it in 2003 to
send to
users who do not have 2007.

Any suggestions are welcome. thank you.
