Protect word documents

In a Word document, we can set a password to that document so as to prevent unauthorized users from accessing that document. Passwords are especially important for sensitive documents in order to prevent them from being unintendly modified.

In order to protect a password you should do the followings :
1.   Select Tools->Options.

Options dialogue box appears

2.   In the Password to Open textbox type your desire password and click Ok.
A Confirm Password dialogue box appears

In the Reenter Password to Open textbox type the same password as you do the same password in the previous (options) dialogue box and then click Ok.

Once a document is protected by password, don’t forget. It may cost you even more!
