Default Only 'VIEW' Word document.

Is there a way to allow other to only 'VIEW' a Word document, but NOT make
changes to (I know how to password protect & make a document read only) and
NOT print the document?

Thanks!

Can't be done. If it can be viewed, it can be printed. And easily too.

Anything that can be viewed can be copied or printed.
