Hello,
iam struggling to copy a Word document on to a re-writable CD. firstly i was unable to do it at all. I have now got around that, but now it is copying the document as a read only file, how do i get around this?

You don't! CD is a read only medium, unless you have one of those dreadful
'big floppy' utilities installed.

Never work directly with CD media from Word. Always work from the hard
drive. Copy data to and from CD media using your CD writing software. When
you copy the data back to the hard drive to work on it - use Windows
Explorer to uncheck the read only file attribute (right click - properties).
