--- Comment #1 from cadavis7@asu.edu ---
Can confirm the issue is present. I am using Microsoft Office Word 2007,
Dropbox desktop app v11.4.21, and OpenOffice 4.1.2. I am on a Windows 10
computer.

Steps to recreate. 
1. Create any word doc and save into your dropbox.
2. Click the Windows button within Word > Prepare > Encrypt Document
3. Save file and close
4. Open document with open office and enter password.

If the document is a .doc type file you will not be able to type or change
anything into the document. At the top where it says the filename it will say
[Filename](read-only)

When the file is unencrypted the .doc has the expected functionality and there
is no restriction of read only.

This issue does not happen on .docx files. For .docx files the behavior is the
same when not using dropbox.

This could impact users who want to ensure their dropbox files are secure.
