Problems with password to modify document

We have documents "templates" that we use over and over again. Many times
people have opened them up, modified them to suit their needs and saved over
the "templates". We have tried to password protect them (to modify them) so
that the altered documents have to be "saved as" and not saved over the
templates.

In Excel, the password protection does not follow the "saved-as" file. In
Word, you have to have the password to open up the modified "saved-as" file.
How can we get around this?
