We all use Microsoft Word to create documents.
and sometimes we don’t want other people to access our documents. Especially
when you are on a shared computer in your company and you may have your certain
secret data stored in your word document that should not be accessed by your boss
or other employees.
To deal with such a situation Microsoft word
2007 integrated a security feature in Microsoft word so that you can password
protect your files.
Just follow these simple steps to make your
document protected.
Click on the Microsoft Office Button present
on the top left corner of the window.
Now click on the Save As option
Now a new window will pop up.
Click on Tools option at the bottom of the
window.
Select general options.
Now you will have two options.
You can select either one or both options
One is Password to Open it will ask for the
password every time the document is opened.So to view the document you have to
enter the password first.
Second is Password to Modify it will ask for
the password every time somebody tries to modify the document.
