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.

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 "Peter T. Daniels" wrote: 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.

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. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Doxie 2" wrote in message ...
