Corrupted sub-project files

[Richard Nguyen]

Hi: I created a master IMS with dynamic links to 3 sub-project files. I
created password for the master IMS file but did not save change to the 3
sub-project files. However, all 3 sub-project files now became read-only
files.

I took out all passwords from master IMS file. 3 sub-project files now
remained as read-only files. They provided me with 3 options: Read-only,
Notify, and Cancel.
I cannot delete these files either.

Is this P2007 by chance?
You may want to try this. Keep the master closed. Open the read only file
and save it with a new file name in the same location making sure you have
all the settings you desire. Delete the old file. Rename the new file to the
old file name. Repeat three times.

Good morning Jim:

Apparently, Read-only problem went away after several hours. Not sure why.
When problem occurred yesterday, I could not delete the files. Reason:
someone or program is using them.

Anyway, thanks for the tip that I can use in future.
