This behaviour is as it should be ....
In MsOffice, certain from fields can be used to imput data, by tabbing
from one field to another. Therefore the form has to be protected ...
Thus if you open the documentn in OOo, it is still protected.

Sorry, but I really don't understand the "therefore" in the middle of
that. The word "therefore" means that there is a cause and effect
relationship. Why does being able to input data by tabbing from one
field to another mean that the form has to be protected?
This is how it works in MsWord. After creating the document and putting
the fields in their place, the document can be form-protected. Than the
tab key can be used to jump from one field to another.
See also the link I've send.
When I *unprotect* the form by unchecking the "Write Protected" boxes
under Format/Sections, I can fill in the form by tabbing from one field
to another. [...]
No, using the tab key in OOo won't automatically bring you from one
field to another (anyway, I've never seen it working that way).
So unprotecting the form and clickin from field to field is how it
currently can be used in OOo.
This is to my best knowledge. Pls correct me (with detailed explanation)
if I'm wrong.
Greetings,
Cor
