Tools Security Advanced. Use an encryption with a key length of 128,
which is the maximum allowed. The receipient will of course need to know the
password.

I'm using Word 2002 (XP) - what is the strongest encrption type and
key length to use that will work OK so the person I send the doc to
will be able to decrpt it?
Also what makes a string password?

It is encrypted and if you use one of the higher levels of encryption
offered and a strong password it will defy casual attempts to open
it and serious attempts will require a lot of processing over a
prolonged period.

If I password protect a Word document is the document still in plain
text with a password which the application needs to open it, or is
it encrpted using the password as the key.
If encrptyed just how strong is it and how does it differ from
Office 2002 (XP) to 2003 please?
Thanks
