Form Fields In Word

[kevin]

I use Office student and teachers

In Word I use form field and pull down menus for my inspection
reports. I have a problem that does not occurr on another computers
that I own. When I click on Document Protect then unprotect and
protect again all the form fields reset to thier default setting. I
need them to stay where I set them because I have nearly 120 form
fields and it is a pain to check the boxes and pull downs then make a
spelling correction and have to do all the form fields again because
they reset. Is there a way to fix this

Hi Kevin:

See if you can get this solution to work for you:

http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/TurnFmFlfResetOff.htm

That was written years ago by Ibby Elnizak. I suspect he was writing his
Thesis at the time: he is now qualified -- as a Dentist, I think, and no
longer has time to visit us

cheers
