How to make hyperlinks work in MS Word Forms

[sqleptical]

I am working on an MS Word 2000+ document that uses drop-down form fields. This document also has hyperlinks that the user needs to click on for help/info.

The problem is that in order for the drop-down form fields to function correctly, the form must be protected, but once the form is protected, the hyperlinks become unusable/unclickable.

Is there a way around this?

The answer is to use Continuos Page Breaks. This allows you to Protect only certain sections of a document/form while other sections are not Protected.
