Thank you for your response, 
What I did to resolve the problem was to password protect the documents and when a client decides to save the document onto their computer, they would be prompted for a password which is in a way preventing the browser from having access to the document, unless there is a way around the password system.  Also, we didn't want the browser to have the ability to change anything on the document without the proper authority.  I don't know if it's automatic, but when you make a change to the document and print it out, there is a red -------- pointing to a box with the item changed on the document, which is awesome.  Again, thanks!

Hi Ron,
 
Your best alternative (though not foolproof) is to make the document available as a PDF.
 
MS Word has a feature under Tools called 'Protect Document', but I believe it protects the document from being opened only.
 
Best of luck,
 
Seth

Hi Everyone,
Does anyone know how to disable the ability to modify and save documents to the clients desktop or hard drive from a website?  I have unchecked the Write check box from the Default Web Site Properties under the Home Directory tab.  I also made the .doc file read only.  Any suggestions?  Thank you in advance.
