While typing a document in Word, message box appeared saying the program
had
performed an illegal operation and would shut down. After the program
closed
and I re-opened it (several times, including days later) and tried to
recall
my document, Word kept telling me the document was locked for editing and
that I couldn't open it except as a read-only document. I went to take
the
lock off and work with this document. How do I do it?
