**excelwala12** · 04-06-2023, 07:07 AM

Hi I have made a Word form and used legacy tools. i have also applied protection and password but I can edit/write text any where in file.
I sent file to someone else and they can enter text any where in the file
It is actually a assignment template and want my student to write at certain places and can not make any other changes.

I am attaching the word template that i created
I chose the first option when i put password(Password = Abc) after I clicked on Start Protection Now

How can I make it possible that student can only enter text at specified locations.

There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook. Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

That's a Word file - did you mean to post in the Word section? I can move the thread for you.

I understand, but I would only use the Office 365 section for over-arching queries. This is Word-specific, so I've moved it. Hopefully it'll get noticed.
