An organisation recently sent me an MS Word document, as an e-mail attachment, and asked that I fill it in and e-mail it back.
I don't use MS Word. I use OpenOffice, on Win XP/SP2. I opened the document and started filling it in. As soon as I started typing I got an error message to the effect that the document is Read Only and I can't modify it. I forwarded the e-mail to a friend who has MS Word. On his system I could fill in the form; it was *not* read only. What is happening here, please? Harold Fuchs London, England
