Document switch to become Read-Only when it's not suppose to
I am having this same problem in Word 2007. The document changes to
read-only (with "(read only)" after the name in the title bar, on its own for no apparent reason. Two facts that might help debug this. It started doing this after I installed a major update from the Office Update site. I had also installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 a few weeks ago, but the problem did not start occurring until after the office update. |

Document switch to become Read-Only when it's not suppose to
I am having the same problem with Word. It opens documents with the "read
only" format and I must rename to save it. I am on a network and run XP on my computer. Other users can open the same files and make changes without this bug, so I can assume that it can only be a problem with my settings or program. Any solutions?

Sounds like a bad third party add-in running on your computer. Check what
you have installed that your colleagues don't have. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "PSYCHO" wrote in message ... I am having the same problem with Word.

I solved this problem on my machine by disabling the Adobe Acrobat PDF Maker
COM add-in. When that add-in is enabled, some of my documents were, on their own, becoming read-only while open. After disabling that add-in, this problem no longer occurs.

Thanks for the hands up. I also believe that PaperPort has been reported as causing this as well as some network tools. Terry "LeeN" wrote in message ...
