In our office environment, we have a file server, where CSRs access
shared forms to fill out while on client calls. For obvious reasons
they do not have write access to the server (to prevent them from
deleting or modifying the template/master document).
So when they open the file, it opens read-only. Traditionally under
MS Office, while in read-only mode, they could modify it and then
choose "Send as Email" and sent to the appropriate department for
processing.
In Open Office, you are forced to save the document to their C:
drive in order to modify it. CSRs have no need (or want) to save
every document they send. It's a waste of time (an extra step to
save as and rename and space on their PC). It just needs to be
completed and sent (plus there is an email record anyway).
This is how many high volume, enterprises are set up to handle
shared documents/templates. It may not make 'sense' in the
individual user at home's life but it does in large enterprise
environment.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
Thanks.

I son't see the point of beeing able to edit a read-only document.
Yes input field can be shoen (the input dialog is activated on
click) but it is
then also read-only and you can't change anything.
Unlesss there is a good reason for editing such documents, I'd
close this issue
as "invalid".
