Not something in Word itself. Must be some sort of add-in or document
management system. He needs to ask the company IT person.

Susanne,
There is no IT person here, they have an outside network guy. He said this
started happening suddenly about a year ago. I'll have him check with the
network guy but I doubt he will know anything.
Thank you,
Mark

A year ago? A busy user then!
Definitely something outside Word. Word does not do that sort of encryption.
In recent versions of Word, a password protected document will be encrypted,
but nothing like the way you describe. That sounds more like a third party
encryption utility such as PPP.
