Autotext field in a protected form
AutoText fields work fine in protected forms. Do you perhaps mean an
AutoTextList field? What are you trying to do with it that you can't do with a drop-down form field? What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...nesInForms.htm.
