I think he will have to change the document to edit it under the document properties. Some authors apparently designate individual docs as read-only so they can't be edited. But, you can usually change that in the properties for that document.

I suppose another option is to highlight everything in that read-only document, copy it to the clipboard and create a new document and paste the material in. But, if you do that, you might lose some of the formatting.

That turns on the virtual cursor right? Does that make in read only?

You want to toggle on and off with JAWS key+z.

Evening folks.

I apologize if I had asked this question before. How can I turn a MS Word
2013 document into an editable document from a read only document? I am
using Jaws 17, Word 2013 and Windows 10 on a Dell laptop. Many thanks in
advance.

Jerry
