Hi =?Utf-8?B?Qmxha3Rob3JuZQ==?=,
I've made a word 2003 document, but I am unable to uset he protect document feature either from the tools menu or the forms toolbar. Can anyone tell me why this is? Could this be a mail merge document, perhaps?

Word is opening in VB Design mode. Why is word automatically opening in Design mode for this document, no other documents open in design mode except this one or others that i create with parts of this document. |

I suspect you inserted controls from the Controls Toolbox rather than
formfields from the forms toolbar. You may have to start your document over from scratch and copy text content into the new document. What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...nesInForms.htm.
