Default Can't type in Word 2007

Search for the file opa12.dat and rename it to opa12.old, then restart the
PC and open Word. This would 'trick' Word to think that it has not been
activated yet and will force you to do it. It should help. Let me know.

Just installed a trial version, opened Word and can't type any single
charachter. It keeps showing message at the bottom 'The modification is not
allowed because the section is locked'. What section? What locked? It's a
brand new document. Excell works fine. Did any body else go thru this?
