Hi All,
I hope someone can help me, but I fear I already know the answer to this question.
I have a document that has macros enabled. The document is protected for filling in forms (so copy of text is forbidden). The macros control what is printed. The text is hidden and the macros unhide the various text so that if macros are disabled all you get is a blank sheet. In other words, I don't want anyone touching the text in the document, editing it in any way so that EVERYONE MUST use the macros.
However I have recently seen online that you can remove protection by opening a new Word doc and Clicking Insert Object - Text From File which will take all the text out of the Word document you select and paste it into the blank document thus removing all protection and allowing the document to be edited.
I don't like the idea of this (although I'm sure nobody in my work will know about this).
Is there any way of stopping this from happening? Is there any trick that i can apply to the text in the protected document that, when copied into the new document it will not resemble the protected document?
Any tips welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Andre
