How do I unlock a word document
I went into a word document to update it and it will not allow to make any
changes because it says that the selection is locked. I was not even aware you could lock a document. So obviously I have no idea how I did it...but now need to undo it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! |

How do I unlock a word document
It sounds like you've been using a Trial Version whose time period has
expired... It's time to pay up :-) If you have actually purchased a license to use the software perhaps you have not yet completed the Activation process.

Hi,
Try to click on the "developer" on the toolbar, then click protect document, and at the Editing restrictions see if you can unlock the document. hope it will solve the problem.
