How do you run a copy & paste macro in a protected Word document?

I have created a protected form fill Word 2000 document. Some of information
(name, address) needs to be in several places. I've tried to write a macro
that when run will move to the information, copy it, then go back to the
place where the information is to be duplicated, and paste it. The macro
runs OK as long as the document is not protected, but won't write the
information in the document when it's locked.

You are trying to re-invent the wheel. Simply put a REF field(s) in the
document where you want the repeated information, to call the bookmark of
the appropriate form field. Then set that form field's property to calculate
on exit. You don't need a macro!
