Document switch to become Read-Only when it's not suppose to
I solved this problem on my machine by disabling the Adobe Acrobat PDF Maker
COM add-in. When that add-in is enabled, some of my documents were, on their
own, becoming read-only while open. After disabling that add-in, this
problem no longer occurs.

I am having the same problem with Word. It opens documents with the "read
only" format and I must rename to save it. I am on a network and run XP
on
my computer. Other users can open the same files and make changes without
this bug, so I can assume that it can only be a problem with my settings
or
program.
Any solutions?

for no apparent reason. Two facts that might help debug this. It
started
doing this after I installed a major update from the Office Update site.
I
had also installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 a few weeks ago, but the problem
did
not start occurring until after the office update.
