David,
Your steps look fine, and thanks! Didn't ever pay attention to the Tool
button in the file save dialog. Very handy.
I also tried looking for a way to set Word to always password-protect files,
but could not, so I guess there's no way to make it global? For example, you
work with company-critical data and want all files encrypted with your
password.
Dave

Hello there;
if you want to password protect a document in Microsoft Office 2007, try the
following;
I would suggest you try this with a test document first.
1, open Microsoft word2007.
2, type a few test lines of text.
3, now use the following keystroke,
alt+f then the letter a
this will get you to the save as dialog.
type in your document name, example test.
4, now use the keystroke, alt+l=tools, you should hear jaws announce tools,
5, press the applications key, down arrow until you hear general, press
enter.
you should hear something like, password edit.
once you have typed in you're password,
tab to protect document.
I hope these steps are accurate, since I'm not around my machine which has
office2007.
let me no if this works for you.
