documents are coming up as read only in word 2007
The same thing has happened to me.
I have XP and Word 2007. I'll open a file that does not have the "read-only" box checked in the file properties. Yet it becomes "read-only"? This is apparently a growing problem (see "Annoying Read-only problem is back") post filed June 11, 2009. I wonder how many thousands of people this has to happen to before Microsoft dicusses it in the knowledge-base?

documents are coming up as read only in word 2007
I just purchased a new computer with Windows 7 and Office Home and Student.
I am trying to open and edit a document that was created at work on XP and Professional Office. Everytime I open the document it says it is read only. I've changed trusted settings and it is still not opening in an editable form. Does anyone have any ideas????? "Tschurin" wrote: The same thing has happened to me. I have XP and Word 2007.

I figured it out. I was trying to read the document from an external hard
drive and apparently Windows 7 has to have permission to modify files from the external hard drive. I gave permission and now it works. Thanks!
