Cannot open read-only document error after cut and paste

L

Hi,

Since, cutting and pasting a fully functional excel
spreadsheet from one sub-directory to another the file
can not be opened, renamed, deleted, or moved. It
displays the error "cannot access read only document
abc.xls".

I have tried to replicate these actions in the command
prompt with and without explorer running in the task
manager and still the file is protected in some way. It
seems impossible to remove this file. (opening it would
be nice also)

Im running Win XP Pro, and Office 2000.

Can anyone help? Thanks.
