Does anyone know a way to password protect documents in Word 2007?
I have been unable to find a way and cannot imagine why Microsoft
would eliminate that feature. Any help from anyone on this topic
would be appreciated
The procedure is nearly the same in Word 2007 as in previous versions.
Either the first time you save the document, or if you use the Save
As command later, the Save As dialog opens. Click the Tools button
(at the bottom of the dialog, next to the Save button) and choose
General Options. Enter the password, then enter it again when
requested, and continue saving as usual.
