MICROSOFT WORD LOCKED. WHY%3f

[TAMINDIB]

MY MICROSOFT WORD INDICATES THAT DOCUMENTS ARE LOCKED, WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO
TELL HOW TO UNLOCKED?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

If this is Word 2002 or 2003, you may not have activated the software; see
Help | Activate Product.

If it's Word 2003, it may be an expired trial version; see “How to convert a
Office 2003 Trial Edition to a Full Retail Edition†at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=831023.

In any version, if this happens only with some documents, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/LockedFiles.htm

Tamindib,
If this happens only in one document, try Tools - Unprotect Document.
If all your new and existing documents are locked the problem is that hyou
have not activated your
Word software. Maybe you are using a trial version that has expired.
Try Help - Activate Product. If you have an expired trial version, a dialog
box will appear prompting you to enter a product key or purchase one online.
