Open up the folder where the document is and right-click on its properties. If you see that it has been marked as read only, unmark that and you should be able to open it up and modify it. The other solution is to use the "Save As. . ." menu command and change the name slightly. At that point, as long as the underlying directory and media are read-write, the file should be too. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
