I get this problem on 3 separate PCs: two running Windows XP Prof SP3, and one
running Windows Vista Ultimate SP1. I am using OpenOffice 3.0.0 on each machine.

I cannot encrypt/unencrypt OpenOffice documents (ODS, ODT or ODG) using
NTFS-encryption.

To unencrypt an OO document I right click on the file in Explorer -> choose
"Properties" -> select the "General" tab -> click the "Advanced..." button in
the "Attributes" section -> deselect the "Encrypt contents to secure data" check
box -> and click "OK" twice. I get a popup error box "Error Applying Attributes"
with the message "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by
another process".

The only way I can encrypted a document is to either create it in an already
encrypted folder, or copy it to an encrypted folder. And the only way I can
unencrypted a document is to copy it to a non-NTFS drive (e.g. a USB memory 
stick).

This only appears to happen with OpenOffice documents - other documents (e.g. MS
Word, plain ASCII text, bitmaps, etc.) are not affected.

I reported this initially on the OpenOffice.org Community Forum as "OpenOffice
files locked by another process".
