Hello, please assist to my problem if possible.

I have a form that is a protected document at work (I have the password) that is all pull down menus and form fills. I would like to execute a merge to populate all the form fills, but keep them form fills and the document protected. The word form is protected before and after merge, because as a corporate document we should technically not be allowed to make any modifications.

I have no vba experience, but I cannot figure out how to run a macro from within a protected form anyways, so I'm looking for a work around or a good long term solution.
