Jim,
I would use Excel for this: it allows to set various levels of protection and separately on WorkBook, WorkSheet, and on particular cell.

>I have a requirement that would be best addressed by using MS Word's "Forms" capability (or possibly a similar feature of MS Excel if it exists) as the input method for the users.
>
>I believe that Word's "Forms" feature allows output to a .CSV file that I could pick up and process. I suppose that I might even be able to simply scan through all of the form 'fields' and pick up the content that way.

>I am a complete NOVICE when it comes to this stuff... I don't know the characteristics/limitations of Word's "Forms" especially.

>I have 4 basic requirements:
>1) The user must be able to revise the general layout of the document without changing the 'content' of the "fileds" defined.
> - I am prepared to simply tell them that "fields" are sacrosanct as regards content (names, defaults, lists content, etc)
>2) I must be able to transfer any "fields" 'answered' into my database.
>3) I must be able to fill in their (prior) 'answers' if they re-display the form.
>4) I must be able to display the form and its 'answers' but PREVENT further changes if they have "signed off" the form in question.
>
>Note, too, that this "form" would be used multiple times for either the same 'entity' of the database or different entities.
>
>What are my chances? ... Is this worthy of further development or are there some gotchas that preclude this approach?
>
>Thanks
