Bullet points in template text form fields

[Cranky]

Morning

Is there any way to allow users to bullet point items in a text form
field within a locked template? (Word 2000) For that matter, to allow
users to use italics and bold as well...?

Thanks in advance

Steve

Only by using a macro that unlocks the form, applies the setting and locks
it again.
eg for Italics

Dim bProtected As Boolean
'Unprotect the file
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType <> wdNoProtection Then
bProtected = True
ActiveDocument.Unprotect Password:=""
End If
Selection.Font.Italic = wdToggle
'Reprotect the document.
If bProtected = True Then
ActiveDocument.Protect _
Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True, Password:=""
End If

Ah, that'd create problems with the software utilising Word. Ah well.
Thanks Graham.
