How to protect word document from editing?

[NeoWalker]

I have a docment which I have created in Word which is a business contract, I would like to send this to a client via email however, I want them to view the document, but
not be able to click on anything within the document. Track changes still allows the client to amend the document.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks

There's no way to *absolutely* protect.
But you can Tools-Protect document-choose Forms and put a password on it.

Require a password to modify a document:


When you create a password, write it down and keep it in a secure place. If you lose the password, you cannot open or gain access to the password-protected document. Learn about using passwords.

Open the document.

On the File menu, click Save As.

On the Tools menu in the Save As dialog box, click General Options.

In the Password to modify box, type a password, and then click OK.

In the Reenter password to modify box, type the password again, and then click OK.

Click Save.
