Default Fixing Text Boxes

I am creating a shipping document template onto pre-
printed paper using text boxes. Ideally, I would like to
be able to lock text boxes into position so the users of
the template are not able to trash the template.

I would expect to be able to lock text boxes using
the 'Lock anchor' selection in 'Format Text Boxes' - but
this does not work.

Any ideas how I can prevent text boxes being moved?

Andrew,

Why not a protected form template (ViewToolbarsForms)
and use "frames" (inserted using the Forms frames icon)
vice textboxes to position your formfields.
