    End If 
End Sub

private void DocumentProtectionType()
{
    if (this.ProtectionType == Microsoft.Office.Interop.
        Word.WdProtectionType.wdNoProtection)
    {
        this.Protect(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.
            WdProtectionType.wdAllowOnlyComments, 
            ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
