How can I remove the file restriction placed on the "New" icon in Word 2003?
I am trying to copy text to a new word doc but I am unable to select a new
word document.

If all new and existing Word documents are locked for editing,
then the problem could be because you have not activated your
Word/Office software, or because you have an expired trial
version of Office 2003. What happens if you start Word and click
on Help | Activate Product? If you are already activated, a
dialog box saying so will appear. If you are not activated, the
Activation Wizard will start. If you have an expired trial
version, a dialog box will prompt you to enter a valid product
key or purchase a key online.
