In MS Word 200 or later, I'm looking for something similar to Javascripts 'togglediv' that allows you to expand or shrink forms when clicking on a header? People use togglediv in .asp & HTML, but I need this to work in a Word Document.

Sub Documents is not the solution, as I'm not looking for adding links to external documents. I'm just needing to expand & collapse forms when the form name/header is clicked.

There is a similar thread here on expanding/collapsing text ( )where the solution was found to be Searching Help for 'collapse', leading to using the 'Outline View'.

Unfortunately, using the Outline view is not available when dealing with forms, as the form needs to be protected to utilize the Form functionality of Combo Boxes, Text Boxes etc. Once the Form is protected, Outline view is no longer available. When Outline View is selected, the forms can not be protected resulting in the form controls not being enabled.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!
