Unprotect a Word 2007 document
Pam,
After going to the Review Pane, the Restrict Permissions option was set to "Unrestricted Access". The document was still locked from editing. After reading YOUR post to look for the button to "Stop Protection" under the Restrict Formatting and Editing pane it successfully Unprotected the document and I can now resume editing. Thank You Very Much for your Post. I spent an hour googling a resolution to no avail until I finally found your Post. Much Appreciated George "PamC via OfficeKB.com" wrote: The button to stop protection is at the bottom of the Restrict formatting and editing pane. ...Easy to overlook.

I have been emailed a Word 2007 document that is protected (under the Review [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] there is no option then to select end protection. help please -- Message posted via OfficeKB.com http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...ement/200901/1 |
