Short truthful answer is you can't. You can make it more difficult by
putting this in the Header/Footer and even more difficult by protecting the
resulting template for forms with the body of the document being in an
unprotected section.
See:
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customization/ProtectWord97Header.htm and
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customization/ProtectWord2000PlusHeader.htm.
For more on setting up letterhead take a look at: How to set up letterhead
or some other document where you want one header on the first page and a
different header on other pages.
http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step
instructions. (It also has the following links)

If you are interested in creating templates that will work with the letter
wizard or use that wizard, you should look at the chapter on Advanced
Document Formatting in Using Office 2003 (or whatever your version is),
Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. It has detailed instructions
including instructions on getting the fields you want from your Outlook
Contacts for addressing a letter. (Chapter 19 of SE Using Office 2003) You
should be able to get this through your public library or at Amazon.com

Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While they
are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists
very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those templates
in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have
better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.
Hope this helps,
