Hyperlinks in Protected Forms

Hyperlinks in Protected Forms do not work except when using Macros or when
sectioning off your form around the hyperlinks making the links vulnerable to
editing.

There should be a simple and straight-forward way to keep links working
inside forms while the form is in a protected state.

G'day Greg Nelson <GregNelson@discussions.microsoft.com>,

Word 2003 has a protected text feature that still allows normal
function of the rest of the document.
