Read-only

[Kirsten]

It seems like every time I open up a word template then exit it, it tags the
document as "read-only" and I can't get back in to edit any more. I have
totally rebooted my computer and I am still encountering the problem. Any
ideas?

Hi Kirsten

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/LockedFiles.htm.

Thanks for the tip, Jay. I'm going through it now. I was able to do
everything but the error check and still no go. I'll keep trying though.

Nope, I got the error check to work and I still can't delete that template.
This is so weird and so frustrating.

It's now been over 3 days since I last saved that file. I just want to
delete it! Grrr....
