Default Word2007 "read only" file error

When working with a single file using Word2007 on Windows XP, I keep getting
a "This file is read only" error when I attempt to save updates. The
properties box does not indicate that is read only and I can find no pattern
on when this occurs except that it happens often when I have been making many
updates to te file. I am forced to save the file with a new filename and
then, only after closing the Word application, I can delete the old file and
rename the new file.

Suggestions??
