Default Password protect a table in Word

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone had the expertise to somehow password protect a cell in a table in word so that when you try to input text into that cell you will be prompted with a password before you can input text.



Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you

In Word 2007 & later, you can apply editing restrictions to the document and make the table an exception for only specified users. Anything fancier would require the use of formfields/content controls in the table and an on-entry macro that triggers the password check.
