Highlight Editable Regions in a Protected Document

J

Josh

Hello,

When protecting a document in Word '07, I set aside certain areas to be left
open for people to edit (I essentially created a template for them to fill
out). Each time someone opens the file, the areas that they can edit are
highlighted. I already know how to turn off the highlighting once I'm in the
document (a checkbox in the "Restrict Formatting and Editing" toolbar of the
Protection menu), but this option does not save when the file is closed.

Is there a way that I can set the highlighting to be turned OFF as a
default? When people open the document, I do not want the editable regions
to be highlighted.

Many thanks for your suggestions.
