You can use the Information Rights Management (IRM) feature of Microsoft Office to restrict permissions to a document or workbook. By default, the code behind a restricted Microsoft Office Word document or Microsoft Office Excel workbook is not permitted to run. You can change the default so that your managed code extensions can access the object model, and your solution will work.

Applies to: The information in this topic applies to document-level projects for Excel and Word. For more information, see Features available by Office application and project type.

You must be the author of the document or workbook or have Full Control access to be able to change the permission settings.
