Default Locked Document

I was working on a document and my computer shut down. When it restarted and
I opened the document back up it won't let me edit anything and says it's a
locked document now. I have gone to tools to unlock it and it's all gray and
won't let me. Any ideas on how to unlock this document so I can edit it?

Robin, have you tried saving the document with another name and opening that?
I don't know if that will help in this instance, but it has helped me in the
past.
