Is it possible that the protected docs are saved in docm format? Outlook tries to protect users by restricting access to documents that contain macros.

Unhappy How do I un-protect documents?

Andrew,


Good suggestion and I didn't know that. However, none of them are .docm files. In fact, one is an .rtf file because I dislike sending documents that have more CSS and HTML than text in them. As I understand it, while an .rtf document can't do everything one might want, an .rtf file has much less unnecessary baggage.
