There is no way whatsoever that you can prevent anyone from copying and
changing any document that you allow them to see. You can only slow them
down a bit. PDF is a typical way of inhibiting such editing, but it is by no
means perfect.

I finally figured it out. If I send it by email in a PDF file the
recipient
cannot change the contents of the document. Thanks you

That's how it's supposed to work -- if you send someone a Word
document, they can open it in Word and work on it.
If you want them not to be able to change the document, make it into a
pdf and send that instead.

When I save my document the cursor is still there and you can
delete words
or
add to it. Never happened before how do I get rid of it?
