I have created an electronic letterhead using grahics and text within the header and footer and need to protect these from changes or from being moved. Also tried creating a word version with protection enforced, but was then unable to change the formatting for anything added to the document which had not been protected initially.................. driving me maddddddddddddd
This is a solution posted by macropod to a previous thread: "If you insert a continuous Section break as the first character in the body of your document, then protect the document for forms (protecting only Section 1), the users will be unable to change the header contents. Note, though, that this disables various other editing options also." Hope it helps -- Brian McCaffery "CLARKIE8MR" wrote: > I have created an electronic letterhead using grahics and text within the > header and footer and need to protect these from changes or from being moved. > > Also tried creating a word version with protection enforced, but was then > unable to change the formatting for anything added to the document which had > not been protected initially.................. driving me maddddddddddddd > > >
Many Thanks - that worked a tread. Next job now involves a this protected header/footer sheet but with a contination sheets with a different header which is unprotected. Can this be done? Your advice would be most appreciated.
