Hi Cheri,
Is it just the one document or all documents? If all documents a common cause is that a trial edition of MS Office has expired or
not been activated which basically turns it into a large document viewer.
=============
my document says, "cannot edit because selection is locked".
the entire doc is locked! how do I unlock it? >>
