Word 2002 SP3
I want to protect a Word document. I open the file I want to protect. Select Tools/Options/Security Then under €˜File encryption for this document At €˜Password to Open I entered my password I clicked the €˜Protect Password box, then OK Then saved the document. I then closed and re opened Word but when I opened what was supposed to be a protected document It opened without asking for a password. -- chequer When the game is over, the King and the pawn share the same box. |

From Tools Options Security, enter your password in the dialog, then
Click OK at the bottom of the dialog (not Protect Document). You will be prompted to verify your password. Then save and close. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org chequer wrote: Word 2002 SP3 I want to protect a Word document.

Graham,
After protecting my important files, Banking etc.. . in 'My Documents Folder', I got to wondering if it was possible to protect, 'My Documents Folder' en-bloc. I have a password on my computer but this is mainly to stop my Great Grand children to opening it when I'm not home.. -- chequer When the game is over, the King and the pawn share the same box.

Set up a new user profile in Windows for the great grandchildren to access,
that doesn't have access to any of your files. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org chequer wrote: Graham, After protecting my important files, Banking etc.. . in 'My Documents Folder', I got to wondering if it was possible to protect, 'My Documents Folder' en-bloc.
