For me, reproducing this in AOO 4.1.1 is as easy as:
- create a new document in writer
- type in something
- File | Save As
- select Word 97/2000 format, choose a writable folder, give the document a
name and check "Save with password", then hit Save
- in the following dialog requesting to enter the password, just type the
password twice and confirm (i.e.: do NOT open "More options" and do NOT check
"open file in read-only mode")
In this way I would expect to create a normal (editable, of course) doc file
that simply asks me for password when I try to open it. But as soon as I close
Writer and re-open the saved file, after requesting the password it will open
in read-only mode. I found no way to "remove" this state and make the document
editable again (where is the "Edit" button mentioned in the previous
comments??).
Please note that if, after opening the password-protected doc file, I go to
File | Properties | Security, the check box "open file in read-only mode" is
NOT checked.
