Started using Windows 7 about two weeks ago. Now I can't edit files I just
created within the last week using the Word 2007.
Why?

Hi,

I am really sorry that you are experiencing that. I am not quite sure yet
thatI fully understand your problem but from what I see it seems taht you are
trying to modify a read only file. Make sure taht when you save in word you
are not saving the document as "read only."

Let me know if this helps and if you have any additional info I would be
glad to help you .

Does the status bar tell you that the document is "locked for editing"? If
so, it could be that your trial version of Office 2007 has expired.
