What you can do with an OpenOffice Writer file is to select the entire
document and then apply Insert -> Section ...
The dialogue box that comes up gives you the option of protecting your
section with a password. Since your new section now covers the entire
document, effectively the entire document is now read only.
So the password protects against changes but not against opening the file? I
must have read the Help wrong.
This kind of protection is very insecure, as the Help file warns, mostly
a method to protect against *accidental changes and casual mischief*
Bingo!! Just what I want. Thanks.
