Password protection
To protect an entire document from being viewable without a
password, use the option on the Save As dialog to enter a password.
This option is only available for files saved in OpenDocument formats
or the older OpenOffice.org 1.x formats.
1) On the Save As dialog, select the checkbox beside Save with
password, and then click Save. You will receive a prompt:
2) Type the same password in the Password field and the Confirm
field, and then click OK. If the passwords match, the document is
saved password protected. If the passwords do not match, you
receive the prompt to enter the password again.
Note
Passwords must contain a minimum of 5 characters. Until you
have entered 5 characters, the OK button remains inactive.
OOo uses a very strong encryption mechanism which makes it almost
impossible to recover the contents of a document in case you lose the
password.
Saving a document automatically
You can choose to have OpenOffice.org save files for you automatically.
Automatic saving, like manual saving, overwrites the last saved state of
the file. To set up automatic file saving:
1) Choose Tools > Options > Load/Save > General.
2) Mark Save AutoRecovery information every, and set the time
interval.
Renaming and deleting files
You can rename or delete files within the OOo dialogs, just as you can
in your usual file manager. However, you cannot copy or paste files
within the dialogs.
