Setting a password for a document

[Griff]

Hi,

I'm using Word in Office XP.

When I try to set a password to prevent a document from being opened, File,
Save As, Security Options, the password box is greyed out.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Griff.

is the doc protected as a form or against changes?

Griff was spinning this yarn:

Think I have cracked it.
It was copied and pasted from a Web Page and although having been opened in
Word, it was not saved correctly as a .doc.
Now saved correctly as a Word doc, the password options are available.

Thanks anyway.

Griff.
