I know this question was posed before, but I cannot, for the life of me, find the post. Anyway, here goes. I need to create a form which includes checkboxes as well as areas where text can be typed in for Word 2007. The only way I can get checkboxes to work properly is to protect the document and, when I protect the document, it does not allow one to type text in the form. Surely there is a way to get both functions to perform properly and simultaneously? Any ideas?
