Default removing password protection from a document

How can I remove password protection from a document I have created? I have
NOT forgotten the password but want to un-protect it to send to someone else
so that it can be opened at their end?

Default removing password protection from a document

To remove password protection: In the dialog box where the password was
specified, just select and delete the bullets (or asterisks in older
versions of Windows), and then click OK to close the dialog box.

If you want specific instructions, please tell us which version of Word you
are using and what kind of document protection (password to open the
document, password for a protected form?) you are referring to.
