If all new and existing documents are locked for editing, then it's probably because you have not activated your Word/Office software, or because you have an expired trial version of Office 2003. What happens if you start Word and click on Help | Activate Product? If you are already activated, a dialog box saying so will appear. If you are not activated, the Activation Wizard will start. If you have an expired trial version, a dialog box will prompt you to enter a valid product key or purchase a key online. molly-ness wrote: [Quoted Text] > tmy document is locked. i can't type or do anything, does anyone know how i > get it back to a normal document? when i try to type it says "this > modification is not allowed because the document is locked" could someone > please help me.

Barnhill" <sbarnhill[ at ]mvps.org> 11/28/2008 3:17:20 PM The usual reason for this is that the application has gone into "reduced functionality" mode. Either it is a trial version that has expired, or, if a retail version, it has not been activated and has now exceeded the number of times it can be used before activation is required. -- Suzanne S.
