Password protection of word and excell documents

H

huygens

I have several hundred (with more coming) word documents that I need to
password protect from users modifying (reading is ok). I know word and
excell have the capability of password protecting these files to allow users
to view them but not modify them. Is there a way to do this from a command
line (so I can write a script to pw protect all these files), or is there a
utility out there that will allow me to bulk password protect these files? I
realize that cracking these passwords is not hard, and these files are not
critical data, we just want to discourage the average user from modifying
them.
