locking a word 2007 document

B

Hi .. is there any way I can lock a document from being read by others who
use this computer. It is a family computer .. but I would like to lock a few
documents. It is not that I don't want them modified but I don't want them
opened. Can I do this? I have done the encrypting thing thinking that that
would work but it obviously doesn't. Help??

In the Save As dialog, click Tools (lower left corner) and choose General
Options. Here you can choose "Password to open."
