WD2000: Forms Protection Is Lost When You Insert Form into Another Document (264060)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Word 2000

This article was previously published under Q264060

SYMPTOMS

If your document is protected for forms (on the Tools menu, click Protect Document, and then click Forms), and you insert the form into another Word document, forms protection is not retained in the new document.

CAUSE

This is by design in Word. Word does not retain forms protection if the protected form is inserted into another document.

Protection on your form also may be lost if the form is protected with a password. For additional information, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
