Hi Greg,
Thanks for the response.
Just to provide feedback. I had to first lock the entire document and then unlock just the specific section I needed to edit.
Code:
With ActiveDocument
.Protect Password:="", NoReset:=False, Type:=wdAllowOnlyReading, useirm:=False, EnforceStyleLock:=False
.Sections(1).Range.Editors.Add (Word.WdEditorType.wdEditorEveryone)
End With
