Create MS Word form issue
Hi,
Two questions:
Q1
I use MS Word 2010 to create a form and protect it, everything is fine, but I was wondering when I choose "Plain text Content control" or "Rich text content control", it doesn't allow me to restrict the field, e.g. only type the number instead of character, max. 3 digits, etc., I know I can use "Text form field" under Legacy Forms to accomplish them, but my boss doesn't want to see the background grey area if I add "Text form field"
Q2
When I enabled form and protect it, how can I allow end user to update the header, because when I protect the form, the header is locked.
Any suggestion?
