Disable word "Save As" for a specific document

[Sun]

I was trying to disable the "save as" feature in a word document

and I wrote the code:

CommandBars("Menu Bar").Controls("File").Controls("Save As").Enabled = False

it works but the button stay disabled after I close the word and open it
again.

Is that anyway to disable the "Save As" button only for the specific
document which means didn't cross word session

P.S.

I will finally put this in my C++ application, which open the specific
document and i want user only save the existing document in my system instead
of save as.

you will have to override Word application's 'DocumentOpen' and
'DocumentBeforeclose' event and write code for this. In the code for open
event check for the specific document and disable the menu item. similarly,
for the close item enable it again.

But it won't stop someone who wants to save the document with a new name
from doing so. It will just get in the way of doing so for a short while.
