Hi all,
I am at Salt Lake City, UT doing genealogy research and have encountered a

I did what you said and it was set for me and everyone to read and write.

Often when you get a message saying that a file is read-only, you can still
open it, but you can't save it back with the same name. If that's the case, go
ahead and open the file and use Save As ... to save it back with a new name.
I doubt that your case is that simple however. It sounds
