making stationary

[BB]

how would you go about making a word doc. into a
stationary to save on a network so that it can be opened
and someone can type a letter but not change the
letterhead placings etc. templates allows them to move it,
forms doesn't seem to be the answer..any ideas?
thanks for any help.

Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you
want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages.
<URL: http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm> This gives
step-by-step instructions.

You may want to download the letterhead system from:
<URL: http://www.addbalance.com/word/download.htm>

This may not be the best way to set up letterhead, but it is a way that
works for me. It consists of modular components so that changes to a
letterhead are reflected in all form documents created from then on while
documents that were created earlier remain unchanged.

Putting the letterhead in the header is sufficient to protect it from
inadvertent change; see http://home.zebra.net/~sbarnhill/Letterhead.htm. If
you want to protect it from deliberate tampering, then you can create a
protected form, but this type of protection is easily defeated.
