If you have saved the document, you'll need to access it's properties via windows explorer, and click the "unblock" button in the properties dialog to make it permanent. hth, Chip ________________________________ From: Michael D.

Unlike Adobe Reader I was not able to find any settings to change this behaviour. My work around is to save the document then open it in MS Word. I am noticing that I am receiving more and more documents through this method as I am using more and more FTP types of sites for sharing documents.
