Check out the 'Restrict Editing' options available via the Developer tab.

The options for that are just below the ones for the Styles, etc. See: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...010354323.aspx

Please note that all you can do is make it more difficult to edit. If they can see it, they can copy it (if only by using a pencil and paper or taking a snapshot with a camera). If they can copy it, they can edit it.
