What you ask is not possible, *ANY* document that you allow someone to see
can be copied.

Do you really mean that you do not want anybody to COPY your document?
As Graham Mayor points, any document that shows on your screen can be
copied, at least with the PrtScrn.

In other words, any document which has been opened can be copied, one
way or the other.

But if you actually mean, you do not want the document to be modified
and saved under the same name, then check the password approach (Tools,
Security).

Unfortunately the password approach is an illusion also as it is quite
possible to save a version without the password which can be used to replace
the originally named version. If the document can be opened, it is the
users' to do with as they want.

What about the password approach limiting opening the document in
Read-Only mode only? I believe one password can allow to open, another
one being necessary to make any change?

This will only stop you from saving the changes in the original document. It
won't stop you saving an unprotected version with the modifications. You
could then replace the original document with your modified document.
