Hi George
Yes, I did briefly look at these options, but they were more than I needed
in this case. I am going to use a file as a template and don't want to
permanently change the original information. My problem was that I was
looking to make the document read only before I had saved it. As soon as
Chris told me what to do, I realised my mistake.
Thanks
Barry

Hi Barry,
Have you looked in Word's Tools menu, and "Protect
Document"?
This is a somewhat more secure way of preventing people
making changes.
You could also consider going a step further, and adding
Passwords to documents.
George.

Barry, press alt enter on the file in My Computer/Windows
Explorer, and
check the "read-only" check box. Press enter to save your
setting. Hope that
helps.
