Default Combining tracked changes and editable fields

Hi All,



I need to create a form which has restricted editing; allowing users to fill in only certain fields AND ensuring their changes are tracked.

I know using the developer tab you can pick one or the other..but I need both!

Literally pulling my hair out ..if anyone has any solution it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

The two options you mention (in the Restrict Editing pane) are mutually exclusive, as you have noticed. Could you use content controls with Track Changes instead?
