Track Changes and Dropdown Menus

T

tchwriter

I asked this question on another list, but have't had a response, so I
thought I would try it here.
We are using protected forms with a dropdowm menu in the title block that
modifies the footer (with a Ref field) when the document prints. I've been
asked to turn on Track Changes before the protecting the form so that
multiple users can contribute to the forms. When I do this the dropdown menu
either disappears or loses it's contents, or the ref field gets screwed up.
I've tried protecting the form using the "no reset" code option without
success. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for your help!

Bad news, forms and changes were never ever meant to co-exist.
