how can I setup a password to access a document?

I am using MS full version office XP that has 3 different users who create
multiple documents in MS Word. I want to make sure that each user can protect
their individual documents be creating a security password for each
sensitive document. I have tried (with the document on screen) going to
TOOLS-OPTIONS-SECURITY and then creating password-OK verifying password-OK
and then closing the document. When I reopen . the document, it does not
require the password? What am I doing wrong?

Sweet tooth,
Don't know if it will help but have you tried adding the password in the
save as dialogue in stead of going to Tools - options? Click on the menu
Tools (far right in the dialogue) and choose security options - type your
password.
