I have a Word file that is protected with a password. It
has been opened several times, but now it opens without
prompting the password dialogbox and opens it as read only.

The whole document is encrypted and I cannot seem to get
the password dialogbox in any way...

I open the document in Word 97.

Kind regards,

EH
