Ok let me say this, I do not have a trial version, I bought office 2007
through my school. ANd it has been on my computer for almost a year and a
half

I am trying to complete an assignment but when i try to modify text, I keep
getting the message,

"modification cannot be completed the selection is locked"

Again I reitterate I don't have a trial version and have never had this
problem before?

Any answers in the settings of the document or properties?

Well I am having a similar problem with an original (not Trial) office 2007
that I bought from Microsoft directly through (Home Use Program). I bought
Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise Edition as part of a (Home Use Program) that
my employer particiaptes in. I installed office and used it for 10 days and
everything was fine. Suddenly, yesterday, I was not able to use it and I
started to get the (selecetion locked) error. I tried to uninstall office and
resinstall again but the problem is still there. I tried deleting the
opa12.dat but the problem did not go. Any help is appreciated.

Please note again that this is an original copy of office 2007 enterprise
that I bought directly from Microsoft and installed it on only ONE computer.

Did both of you activate the product after installing it?
