Help please. I need to protect my work in Microsoft Word.

Is there any tool/option I can use to restrict people copying/editing/formatting my work I dont want readers clicking on my work and copying and pasting it to another document. Is there a way I can prevent this I know PDF is a good solution, but I want to keep my file DOC for a specific reason. Please get back at me.

Thank you for the help.

    This is not a VSTO-specific quesiton, but I'll see if I can provide some assistance.

    If you're using Word 2003, select File\Permission\Do Not Distribute... from the menu; the Permission dialog box will appear.

    Check the Restrict Permission to This Document checkbox, and then click the More Optionis button at the bottom of the dialog box; a second Permission dialog with more options will appear. You should be able to control the document as you wish from here.

    For more specific help on this topic, please post a message on this newsgroup:
