<a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/openoffice/+bug/162057">bug-162057</a> has been reported with the same issue, *.odt format password protect is working fine, but not others, i would rather suggest you to use gpg or export your docs as pdf and protect it, simple way round even you can zip protect your doc.<br>
