Lock Form When Text Field is Clicked

[Jamie]

I am working in Word 2002. I have created a template, the first section of
the form the user types freely (no fields). The next section contains the
fields that the user will tab to to complete the form.

I would like to have a macro that will lock the template when the user
clicks on the first field (Text1) with the mouse. Can this be done?

If you insert a section break between the free text and formfields area, you
can selectively protect just the formfields section. When you go to tools,
Protect, click the Forms option and then click the Sections button to show
the dialog that allows you to select which section(s) to protect.
