I am simply trying to create a form that users can enter information on. 3 text fields and one drop down. I have them all setup. I have the values setup in the drop down. When I don't have the "protect form" marked, I can enter info in the text fields, but the drop down is not enabled (ie can't see the drop down arrow). When I mark the "protect form" then the drop down works great, but I can no longer enter any information into the text fields. Using Word xp.

If indeed Fill-in is enabled, and the Section is indeed protected, then I can not duplicate this whatsoever. Could you please clarify:
"When I mark the "protect form" then the drop down works great, but I can no longer enter any information into the text fields."
Does this mean you can not put the selection into the textboxes at all?
