Hi Col,
I do nog know which version of Word you are using. But normally you
choose for Extra | Protect Document. Then you can choose for the option
you want. Type your password en Word wil ask to confirm it, so type the
password again. Don't forget your password ;-)

Good luck,
Maria

You cannot password-protect a folder from within Word or any
other Office application. But there are at least two ways to do
it in Windows XP:

How To Use Compressed (Zipped) Folders in Windows XP

Best practices for the Encrypting File System

Please be sure you understand the instructions and caveats before
you embark on this course of action.
