p/word protection 4 opening file

[mr.burns]

hi guys,
just upgraded OS to xp pro,running office 2000.
have used xp pro + office 2003 previously.
files are on a client and not networked.
I am wanting to p/word protect opening the file and also
p/word protect opening of a folder. Cannot seem to locate
where the options are to do this. been round and round
the help txt but it's not giving me what I'm seeing. Are
there conflicts with office 2000 and xp pro?
Any help would be received with much gratitude as been at
this all morning with no success. I'm fine with
protecting workbook sheet etc.oh one other thing..if
networked does the share workbook and track changes allow
several people to have the file open and be working on it
at the same time? the txt is very unclear about this.

Best regards,

mr.b
