Word doc Security?

I wanted to get the groups expert advice on how secure MS Word
document security really is? For example, I have an open password,
modify password and the document is password protected with the
restriction of filling in forms and my VBA code is passwod protected.
In my specific case I am using Word 2003, but soon testing and
converting my app to Word 2007. I have heard of many free or cheap
programs to crack MS word password protection but have no real
experience of this.

1.) Does one encryption type versus another on the open password
really matter? If so, what is the most secure?

2.) Is there added security benefits in Word 2007 for the open, modify
and protected document password?

3.) What would your advice be for securing a protected form template
in the most secure method to keep unauthorized users from using or
modifying the app?


Thanks.
