When I open an existing word document, I cannot modify or edit it
I open a word doc I cannot edit or compose. When I try to use the drop down
menus, most are greyed out and I cannot access them. What I find most disconcerting is that I recently edited the document. HELP |

Is there a message at the bottom left corner of your Word window
that says, "This modification is not allowed because the document is locked"? If all new and existing documents are locked for editing, then it's probably because you have not activated your Word/Office software, or because you have an expired trial version of Office 2003. What happens if you start Word and click on Help | Activate Product? If you are already activated, a dialog box saying so will appear. If you are not activated, the Activation Wizard will start. If you have an expired trial version, a dialog box will prompt you to enter a valid product key or convert your trial version to a perpetual version by purchasing a key online. beno wrote: I open a word doc I cannot edit or compose.
