password protection

[debi o]

I have password protected my forms using Word 2007. However when staff opens
up the merge template as a "read only" file and then merges and saves and
renames the new file when someone tries to open it they are asked for the
password that should only be needed for the original form. This is causing
us a problem with e-filing.

It sounds as though you have set the wrong sort of protection. You need
protection for forms from the developer tab, or easier see
