Can not enter data after the check box are checked.

[kris]

I am working in Microsoft word 2007 and have developed a form that users
fill in. I used the option Developer to create the form. I have check boxes
in the form and when a user put an x in any of these boxes the fields that I
have where they can type in data will not let them enter any data - if I do
NOT check any of the boxes I can enter the data into these fields, got any
suggestions? This form has been protected from users to edit the form, other
than just entering data into the fields. Thanks

The documnet needs to be protected for Filling in Forms; are you using Text
Input type FormFields for the Text or something else?

It sounds as though you have inserted check box form fields which require
the form to be protected and Word 2007 text content controls which don't.
Don't mix and match. Use only the legacy form fields and protect your
document. You may find

This was the solution, once I used all the fill-ins from the legacy form, the
form worked great - THANK-You!!
