Help! I have been using OOo2 (something) and had a multipage document
that I edited often, added to often, shifted content from page to page, etc.
After I ungraded to OOo3 (something) that document became "read only".
And that is exactly what it is! Now, I can do _nothing_ but read it.
Incidentally, when I check the file's "attributes" the "read only" is
NOT checked.
How can I restore the document to an editable form?
Thanks, Bill Gilpin
With OOo closed down, check the directory where the file is stored for a
hidden file that starts with .~lock. . This is a file that prevents
more than one copy being opened for editing. Delete the file and you
should be good to go.
The file maybe left behind if OOo does close down properly, ie a crash.
