But the stuff is still there. I'm guessing you're using the lock button on the forms toolbar? They changed that one so that won't clear the fields and they added a button to reset field on that same toolbar. See the one that looks like an eraser? Use that. OR...you can just click Tools/ProtectDoc/Forms the way you used to be able to and that'll clear them. NoReset will still work on that.
