The Secret of Setting a Password for an MS Word Document

Invoking Save As (ALT-F-A)

First step is to invoke Save As on the Document.  To initiate this, click on the "Microsoft Office Button". (Note: Another way to get at this feature is ALT-F-A).

Invoke General Options (Note: NOT Save Options)

This is in the bottom right of the Dialog, next to the Save button.  You will then be prompted for a password.

Note: we are interested in General Options, and NOT Save Options (e.g. save as DotX or DocX format).
