Word Processing Tips
Reproduce formats by painting them; create fancy horizontal lines in a few keystrokes; indent both sides of a block quote.
Protect Docs From Changes
Both Word 97 and Word 2000 offer a way to prevent others from changing the contents of your documents, while letting them open the document freely without a password. Alas, Microsoft's description is so obscure that you might never find this method. Follow these steps after your document is in its final form:
- Select Tools,
Protect Document.
- Select Forms in the Protect Document
dialog box.
- Type a password of your choice in the Password field and
click OK.
- Type the password again in the Confirm Password
dialog box and click OK.
If you need to remove the protection for editing, open the document, select Tools, Unprotect Document, enter the password when prompted, and then click OK.
