This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked

I went to "review" but the whole taskbar is grayed out and I can't do
anything at all.

If using 2007, go to the Review Tab of the Ribbon if the Restrict Editing &
Formatting Task Pane isn't displayed. Then click the Protect Document icon
(right end of the Ribbon) & choose Restrict Editing & Formatting. At the
bottom of the pane click the Stop Protection button - if there is no
password require you will be allowed to revise the document. If prompted for
a password & you don't know what it is you can't make changes anywhere the
Find Next Region... And Show All Regions... Buttons highlight for you.

It sounds like you're in a Protected doc. Go to ToolsProtection & see if
there is a command in the submenu that reads as "Unprotect Document". If you
attempt to remove the protection you may be prompted for a password.

If this isn't the issue be sure to specify version info when you respond.
