Hi :) Use "Save As" to give it a new name. I tend to add "-v1" to the end or gradually increase that number. So in a folder i get names such as Khidmat-v1.odt Khidmat-v2.odt Khidmat-v3.odt Then if something has gone wrong with the latest version it's easy to go back to a fairly recent version. I tend to find that files become read-only if opened over a network by a different desktop machine or after rebooting the machine i am using. Regards from Tom :)
