Encryption / data protection
We are looking at solutions for data protection. We have multiple network shares that contains data that is very important to the company. This data does need to be seen and edited by the workers. What we want is a solution where they can access it and edit it on their local pc, but cannot make copies of it. For example if a employee leaves, we do not want them to be able to take a copy of the information. Is there software out there that does this sort of thing, where the end user needs to be running a client to be able to decrypt the data?

Agreed. This is not possible - you can make it harder (marginally) and people will try and sell you fairly expensive DRM solutions, but compare this to movie or videogame piracy - there are *no* systems out there that aren't pirated within hours of release, nor really will there ever be.
more of right mgmt. like in Microsoft IRM (or DRM) - some rules

Again: This will not help against filming the screen. This question is so often seen... it takes some time until people realize they cannot prevent this with technical measures.
