Sometimes this happens to me when opening a file. My answer has always been to close and reopen it. The other method people suggest, which I think is more effort, is to "Save As: and give it a different name. Don't forget to back up your work.Alan. Original message From:

Re: Read only ? Why can't I use open office ? Thanks

The subject line is for the subject, your questions should go in the body. Why you can’t use OpenOffice is hard to guess as you don’t tell what the problem is. Are there any error messages ? Regards, Martin Groenescheij > On 26 Nov 2018, at 2:14 pm, "mikentammy1...@outlook.com" > wrote: > >

First of all you need to know why the file is READ ONLY there are a couple of good reasons for example the file could be saved as READ ONLY by purpose or a file could been improperly closed. If improper closed you see a file that starts with .~lock. than your file name and anding with # e.g.

Re: READ ONLY

Dealing with balky read-only files is quite simple. Just open the file to view it, do "select all" (usually ctrl-A), copy it to the clipboard (ctrl-C), open a new file using whatever file extension/file type applies, do a paste (ctrl-V), then do "save as" with a new filename. Then you are free

RE: READ ONLY (PS)

Thank you, Andrew. It appears that the read-only settings apply to documents in the \DOCUMENTS\ and \ONEDRIVE\ folders in your OpenOffice History. The next test is to find out exactly where those folders are on your Windows 10 PC. Let's concentrate on the \DOCUMENTS folder. Find where
