    I have a fillable form. It’s an inventory form sent to random users. I’d like to give them the option to password protect the document using a button. I began with going his route, Create a button and assign Execute a Menu item and selecting File>Properties

    Well, this is not useful! For one, this form is protected for unauthorized changes such as deleting or adding pages. So when File > Properties brings up the security page, the user needs to know my password to go the next step so they can set their password! What do you suggest I do? It’s somewhat flabbergasting to be asking this question in this day and age of cybersecurity!
