What is the correct method to limit editing of specific items in a document?

1. Select the items, right-click, and select "Owner only"

2. Choose the items, right-click, select "Protect range," and assign privileges

3. Choose the items, right-click, and select "Do not change"

4. Select the items, and double-click

The correct answer is: Choose the items, right-click, select "Protect range," and assign privileges

The method to limit editing of specific items in a document is achieved through selecting those items, right-clicking, and then choosing "Protect range" to assign privileges. This approach allows you to control who can edit particular sections of the document, ensuring that only designated individuals can make changes while others may view or comment. This functionality is crucial in collaborative environments where multiple team members are involved, as it helps maintain the integrity of the content by restricting editing capabilities to only those who are authorized. By assigning privileges, it not only enhances security but also fosters accountability, as each user's editing access can be managed effectively. The other choices do not provide the same level of control or specificity when it comes to limiting editing. Selecting "Owner only" does not directly manage editing permissions for other users. The option to select "Do not change" likely lacks the formal application of permissions to safeguard content effectively. Additionally, the action of double-clicking does not inherently limit editing in any structured manner.
