I confirm the same problem on Windows version of OpenOffice 2.4.1 but the 
difference is that workaround doesn't work.
You right-click in TOC, choose "Edit Index/Table", uncheck check box "Protected 
against manual changes" but only the TOC becomes writeable. The whole document 
persists being read-only.
Actually I can unlock the document in Microsoft Word 2003, using Tools -> 
Unprotect Document option. Then it opens in OO in writeable mode.

Something is wrong with OO compatibility with MS Office. When you use
ODT format, everything works like it should.
