[Word97]: (un)protecting forms

N

Nils Vergeer

Hi all
This is about forms in Word97

When I created a document using forms (with radio buttons, check boxes, free text and so on), and afterwards I protect the document, the text dissapears! I can't even undo it. When I quit the application, I does ask me if I want to save the changes (No! I want the changes undone, you ...

Still I want to protect the form before I can distribute it. How to do this without losing all content? Is it a bug in Word97
Best regards, Nils Vergeer
