Hi: I'm working on several new templates for my company. We want to set up the documents so that people can edit certain parts of the document, but not the entire document. This helps insure that documents maintain a uniform look. In Microsoft Office Word 2003 for the PC, I can go to Tools--> Protect Document. This opens up the Protect Document taskpane. From this task pane, I can select 'No changes' allowed in the document, with the exception areas that I've hilighted and designated. In addition, I have the exception areas I want people to type in clearly marked with macrobuttons (these buttons say things like 'TYPE NAME HERE'). The advantage to the macrobuttons is that you can type in them and they disappear. With the text box form fields, if you tab through a document it's way too easy shift tab back and then type over everything you've written in the field. This is unacceptable considering that parts of the documents I've created may have pages of information. The macrobutton, protect document process outlined above works great on Office Word 2003 for the PC. Users can only edit the parts of the document I've designated, and nothing else. Not so for the Mac version. I know the combination Ctrl+A to jump to the beginning of the current command, and Ctrl+E to jump to the end. But is there any way to jump word by word, like Alt+←/→ in Cocoa applications does? Sub function_name() button.enabled=false Call Long_Function ' duration: 10sec button.enabled=true End Sub For some reason, this button disabling does not work (it stays enabled in the excel work sheet) I tried experimenting with DoEvents and delays, but no luck there.

Posted:, 02:18 AM Hello - What you are looking for is there & it relies on Sectioning the doc just like in the PC version. It's presented in a different way, though. When you go to Tools>Protect Document, click the option for Forms which will activate the Sections button. Clicking the Sections button call a dialog that lists the sections by number where you can uncheck the sections that are to be left unprotected. ![]() HTH|:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 7/6/06 6:40 PM, in article, '[email protected]' wrote: > Hi: > > I'm working on several new templates for my company.
