Can I insert some type of field into a Word form that allows the .

[lhamilton]

Would like create forms that contain a field wherein users can insert an
electronic signature (a jpg, bmp, or similar). Is there a control or other
method for doing this?

The method is to unprotect the form, acquire the signature with a file
dialog, insert the signature, then reprotect the form without
resetting changes again.

Thank you. It wasn't the answer I was looking for as the form, once issued
to users, cannot be unprotected by them, but such is life in Word.

Forms are easily unprotected by users. The protection here is to prevent
accidental unprotecting. Unprotecting via macro is transparent to the user
and does not affect your 'protection'. The methodology is described at
