Default Password Protecting a workbook

There are two ways to put a password on an Excel workbook - one is through
Prepare Encrypt and the other through the Tools menu in the Save As dialog
box. Why would I choose Prepare Encrypt rather than just put on a password
through the Save As command? What extra protection do I get, if any? If
someone gets my password - they can open the file with either method.
