Hi Heather,
The answer is Yes and NO...
You must protect your form fields. However, you can use section breaks
to enable inserting pictures manually in certain areas.
In a separate email, I will send you a sample of how this is done.
Then you simply protect the sections with the form fields.
I hope this is helpful.
Deborah

This may be a downright silly question - but is there any way to create
a
Word form with functioning checkboxes and text fields without having to
lock/protect?
We are trying to create a document that a user can fill out but also
insert
screenshots and images as needed.
