Password protected Word document

[Bob]

Can't open an attachment that is a Word doucument which
is password protected - Word tells me that the file
location is not correct or I don't have the appropriate
permissions to access the file?

Well, Outlook isn't Word. Even if Word is your e-mail editor, it is not
the e-mail [pre]viewer. Maybe you are trying to reply to the e-mail so
Word opens as the e-mail editor, but that copy is from the PST file
which Outlook can read, not Word. Have you even tried saving the
attached file and open it in Word whereupon you'll then have to enter
the password to view it?
