After you save a document with a write-reservation password, changes to the document will be saved only if it was opened with the password It is otherwise opened as read-only and while changes can be made to the document, they will only be saved if the document is saved to a different file name. Attempting to save it to the same file name will result in the alert:

&quot;Operation Failed. 'Filename' is reserved by another user.&quot;
