Hi .. is there any way I can lock a document from being read by others who
use this computer. It is a family computer .. but I would like to lock a few
documents. It is not that I don't want them modified but I don't want them
opened. Can I do this? I have done the encrypting thing thinking that that
would work but it obviously doesn't. Help??

In the Save As dialog, click Tools (lower left corner) and choose General
