I have a newly installed version of Word 2007 and have been using it without
any problem for a week. All of a sudden I get the message that "this
selection is locked" on all of my existing Word files. What gives?

Is this perhaps a trial version that has expired?

I have Word 2007 installed on my computer, but for some reason, it's not
working. I am not able to type or edit anything at all. When I try to,
the
message reads, "This modification is not allowed because the selection is
locked". I cannot open anything else in Word Options besides the
resources
tab, and when I click, activate, it tells me that I have already
activated
the program. I cannot do anything, even though my copy of Word is
registered
and activated. I really need help!!!!
