There are a couple of simple rules to reme mber, though. First, if you are emailing a password protected file, DO NOT send th e password in the em ail along with the password protected file. Instead, have the recipient call you on the phone for it. Second, DO NOT use a password you normally use -- try to make up a new one each time. That way, everybody yo u email a file to won't have your personal password(s). Finally, if you will be setting both an open and modify pa ssword, it is best to make them different. The point of setting a modify pass word is to keep peop le from changing the document/spreadsheet. If both protections are used, and both passwords are the same, when the password is entered to op en the document, then it also becomes modifiable, thus defeating the purp ose of setting a modify password.
