I don't get it either as when I try these things out I find that if a person
has the password that allows them to open the file, they can then modify it
and store it back with the same name using Save.
And if I do this same thing and make the file Read Only it then opens up
after I give it the password and says I can open it as read only or if I want
to
change the file, I can tell it that I don't want to open it as read only, and
when I do it this way I can then change this file and save it with the same
name in the same spot I opened it from.

I don't understand.
The first password allows only access to view not edit.
The second password allows full access to view and edit.
Those with the first password thus can only view the file. Then you give
both passwords to those you want to allow to view plus edit.
Of course anyone with the right to view could do a simple cut and paste to
another document, and then outside Word delete the original file and
replace it with the copy.
