Don't SAVE to the CD; COPY to the CD (or use your CD-mastering software).

it
to the cd I get the error message the folder is a read only. How do I get

Files on a CD (even a CD-RW) are read-only by default. You do NOT want
to
try to save directly to a CD (or any other removable media) because the
working folder is where Word creates temp files, and this can cause
problems. Instead, save the file to the HD, then copy to the CD. To open
a
CD file for edit, copy to the HD, remove the read-only attribute, edit,
save, then copy back to the CD.

What determines a read only file in a Wrod document and how do you
change
the
attribute from read only so that you can make changes on a cd-rw
disck?
