I have VBA code that prints a word document generated from a word template with form fields and then has to unprotect it to change the header and print the doc again. When I unprotect the doc to change the content of the header all form fields are cleared. But: When I use a Word 2002 doc that just got saved as the 2007 dotm format everything works fine.
