When you say you have tried 'Everything' to 'turn off' ReadOnly on your
document, Exactly WHAT things have you tried? Restarted Word? Restarted your computer? Restarted your server(if you have one)? Checked the file permissions on your file? Made a copy of the file and tried opening that? anything else?? Cheers, ChrisM. "Yoshioka" wrote in message ...

some other computer across a network? If your computer is 'stand-alone' that is not on a network, does anyone else use it? If so, do they log into the computer with a different name?

Why? One a file is on a disk, you can't just change that file. The file MUST
be on your hard drive for you to change it. And by the way, posting in capital letters is considered yelling. And since you are requesting help, that would be detrimental to that purpose. As a matter of fact, that would be rude. You don't want us to think you are rude, do you? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Yoshioka" wrote in message ...

It is obvious that English is not Yoshioka's first language, so he/she may
not be aware how rude he/she is being even without the caps. But I think general density is at issue here, too. IOW, we're wasting our time.

ups.com... Yoshioka, I have same problem. Like you I have tried everything and the problem still there. I am convinced there is no way to get rid of Read Only. And where are these files you are trying to open located? Is it just one file, or does it happen with ALL files? |

Are you always trying to save these files to CD?
If you are, then chances are they will be ReadOnly. CDs are designed to be ReadOnly. Your best bet is to save the file to your hard disk, and only copy it to a CD when it is finished, that is, it doesn't matter if it becomes read-only. One other thing, if you save a file to CD, then copy it to your hard disk, it will usually still have the ReadOnly option set on the hard disk copy. Finally, as far as I know, there is no way of 'turning off' read-only in word, it is more to do with how and where you save the file. Hope you manage to sort it out... Cheers, Chris.

Some people will flat refuse to reply to a message typed in CAPS as they just think it rude... See Rule 1 (and the others if you're interested) http://www.kassj.com/netiquette/netiquette.html Or this: http://tinyurl.com/n3kwr (Google search all about using CAPS) ;-) Cheers, Chris. |

Hey,
You didn't mention earlier that you had a disability. If that's the case, apologies for any offence! However, that doesn't change the fact that many people WILL get annoyed at you if you use all caps, unless they know why. I would suggest that is the Shift key gives you problems, you are better typing in all lower case, rather than all upper case, then you'll avoid any problems. As an alternative, you could mention at the end of the message that you have some a disability that makes typing more difficult for you, that way people will understand, and (hopefully) not have a go at you. :-) Once again, sorry if you took offence. Hope you have sorted your problem with ReadOnly out...? Cheers, ChrisM. "Yoshioka" wrote in message ... ooh this is getting silly but I have to say this, that website u mention!

Definitely all lower case is preferable. Forgetting about it considered as
shouting, it is all about the brain and readability. When we read, the brain recognises most words by the shape of the complete word. The brain rarely needs to examine the individual letters because as a child it learnt the shapes of words. If words are suddenly all in Caps, the eye has great difficulty reading the word shape, so it slows down reading and causes reading fatigue. Take simple word like 'stop'. The brain easily recognises its short length and the position of its ascender and decender. Once you write it as STOP, there are no ascenders or decenders to assist the brain, so it has to actually look at the letters before recognising the word. So never use All Caps - even in Titles if it is a long title. Terry Farrell "ChrisM" wrote in message ... : Hey, : You didn't mention earlier that you had a disability.

Gordon wrote: "Ralphael1" wrote in message ups.com... Yoshioka, I have same problem. Like you I have tried everything and the problem still there. I am convinced there is no way to get rid of Read Only. And where are these files you are trying to open located? Is it just one file, or does it happen with ALL files? These files are saved in the dreaded My Documents realm. I found some information on a google search but it was not any help. Here is how I created the files: Being a stamp collector I copied and pasted some images to a blank email and sent it to myself. Then I went to edit images and sent them to foldersz stored in My Documents. The problem is that I cannot delete images that I no longer need and cannot rename either. Why did I save the images the way I did, it was the only way I found that I could do it. Ralphael, the OLD one |

Chris, you are right on target to my problem even though it has nothing to do with Word. sorry for my post being from a different context. Ralphael, the OLD one |

Bashing Microsoft here will not get you more sympathy or help. No one here
is a Microsoft employee, so you are not talking to MS, despite what you might think. All of us here are fellow users. We may have our problems, too, and we don't all love or defend everything that MS or Word does, but our purpose for being here is to help people solve their problems, not to listen to complaints. -- Suzanne S.
