Ok fair enough. I didn't know it was that customized. And, I want it gone because it's a mandatory field in the document but the options are inappropriate for the document type. The rest of the layout in the document is fantastic, so I don't want to throw it away. I just want to remove this field.

Let's approach this in a different way. If I wanted to add a new field to Word's Info > Properties list, does anyone know how I would do that? I want the field to show up with the other standard fields right on the properties page. Perhaps if I backwards engineer this and understand how to get the field there in the first place, I'll figure out how to edit it.
