What does "modification not allowed...selection is locked" mean?

Office Neophyte

I'm in a trial period of using Microsoft Office. When I tried to open ithe
program and create a document, a blank page comes up that looks ready...but I
can't do anything to it and a message says "This modification is not allowed
because the selection is locked." I've tried several times...don't know why
or how it's locked, or how to unlock it!
