Fw: Question relating to a problem in Open Office
Check the folder the file is in. Normally you will find the same file name with a prefix of ~ added. the other file name is how Open office knows it was being edited. You have 2 choices: 1) Open the file with the ~ prefix – this should contain some of the changes made during the last edit session. 2) Delete the ~ prefix file. This loses all your changes but takes away locked for editing message.

FW: Question relating to a problem in Open Office
Soundaram, I have forwarded your message to dev@ openoffice.apache.org where you may find better responss. The remedy is to find the lock file in the same folder as the document that was open at the time of interruption. It will have a similar name to the one that was open. Delete that file. You may find there are other difficulties to deal with. These can be discussed and resolved on the dev@ oo.a.o list. - Dennis > -Original Message- > From: SOUNDARAM PADMANABHAN [mailto:padmanabhan_2...@yahoo.co.in] > Sent: Friday, November 13, 2015 05:59 > To: dev@community.apache.org > Subject: Question relating to a problem in Open Office > > Sir > Would like to ask a question relating to a problem faced by me in Open > Office. > > Whilst working in a text document in Open Office, power trip forced the > computerto shut down. > On opening the document in which I was working the following message > pops up > Document Locked for Editing > > Question : How to remove this feature - Locked for Editing? > Regards > S.
