Check Box in a table - Word 2002
Hello,
I am using Word 2002 (I think) and I need to insert a check box in an appraisal document that is set up as a table. Simple enough I thought, except that I can't protect the document or the form field to use it properly, i.e. I can't just click on it to check it or uncheck it, I have to go through the field properties and select check or uncheck. Any ideas? Many thanks, Chris |

Hello,
The Protect Document option is 'greyed out' so I can't select it at all. Chris "Stefan Blom" wrote: In what way can't you protect the document?

Does the document also contain ActiveX controls (from the Control Toolbox)?

Ah! I didn't spot that! Yes, it did have. I have taken it out and it seems
fine now. Thanks for your help. Regards, Chris "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Does the document also contain ActiveX controls (from the Control Toolbox)? -- Suzanne S.
