See the article "I keep getting files that I am working on locked for
editing. Word only allows me to open them read-only" at:

There are also several third party add-ins that conflict with Word 2007
causing documents to randomly become Read Only. PDF Maker and Paperport are
two that spring to mind. Try disabling all third party add-ins and test
again.
