Unlocking a locked document
I saved a Word document from my computer at work to my flash drive. When I
took it home to open it, the following message appeared at the bottom of the application: "This modification is not allowed because the document is locked." To my knowledge, I did not lock the document or otherwise protect the document. Any suggestions? |

Do you get the same error if you copy it to your hard drive?

I can open the document from the flash drive but Word will not allow me to
copy the document anywhere, including to my hard drive.

I looked over past messages regarding this question and believe I have
pinpointed the problem. I will go home tonight and see if the information is correct. Thanks for your post.
