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?

Well, it helped, but not in the way it was probably meant to help. I found the Word templates for forms because of this link and was able to find a form they have in templates that does exactly what I wanted to do. So I just figured out which features they used in the form and applied it to my own. Thanks again!
