Word 2007 - Password Protect Document

[Rebas64573]

Does anyone know a way to password protect documents in Word 2007? I have
been unable to find a way and cannot imagine why Microsoft would eliminate
that feature. Any help from anyone on this topic would be appreciated

Hi,

Look under Word Options|Prepare|Encrypt Document.

The procedure is nearly the same in Word 2007 as in previous versions.

Either the first time you save the document, or if you use the Save As command
later, the Save As dialog opens. Click the Tools button (at the bottom of the
dialog, next to the Save button) and choose General Options. Enter the password,
then enter it again when requested, and continue saving as usual.

Note that having entered your password in this dialog, you click OK and not
Protect Document.
