It was saved as "Read Only" by a former employee and now no one knows
how
to
change it. I had followed your process already but stepped through it
again
'just to be sure'... same results.
But thank you for taking the time and effort to try to help me! Most
appreciated!

Just open it from the master copy (is it a *.dot template?) and then
use
"Save As" to save a copy to your hard drive. If you put it on your
desktop
or in MyDocuments, you won't be able to change the original. Then
unprotect
the file (Tools - Unprotect Document) and do whatever you need.
Good luck.

How can I 'unprotect' a copy of a doument pulled from a central

I can modify it or run Spell Check on it's contents if it is only
for
my
personal use? I am not trying to change anything on the master file
or
document.
Thanks!
