You can remove the menu commands and keyboard shortcuts, and trap the Save
and SaveAs commands by writing macros called FileSave and FileSaveAs
respectively (the macros can either do nothing, or give a message explaining
why the option is removed) ... but the method is easy to defeat. Ultimately
there is no way to guarantee that the user won't save the information. (They
can copy the entire document and paste into another based on a different
template, or print to file, or call the built-in Save/SaveAs command from
the macros menu or from VBA.)
If you are merely trying to discourage the users from saving this approach
might be OK; but if you have a serious security issue to deal with, Word is
not the way to go.
