yes, but they have to be able to open it in the first place, which means
that there is a modicum of either trust or permission to edit there!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] protecting a document ms 2007 alert
After reviewing the method for protecting a document sent earlier and
could
not get it to work for me I recalled the original method starting with f12
key save as. After tabbing until I got to tools I arrowed down to general
and entered there. I had to type the password twice and hit ok. Fine, that
sounds normal behavior right? Fooling around I wanted to see how to
unprotect the document. I went back in starting with f12 and followed the
same steps but when I got to the password fields I decided to see what
would
happen if I backspaced over the ***** in the first and second fields and
hit
ok and then see if I could open the document. It opened the document with
no
problems. Well that seems to me to be strange because anyone knowing where
to begin in the protection area need only to backspace over the fields
erasing the ***** and they could open your document. Any thoughts?
