Dave Thank you for your very quick response, I have been toying with the problem over the last few hours, I noted that one document had locked after the title which I changed, shortly after I had to restart the computer as it would not open any files, low and behold the documents are now O.K. even a problem I had with the time it was taking to go into Open Office seems to have resolved itself. The problem I had was with all my documents but this has also resolved itself and they are all behaving. Many thanks for your suggestion I will log this in case I get a similar situation Kind regards Roy On 25 Mar 2014, at 12:01, Dave Barton <d...@tasit.net> wrote:
