Microsoft Word 2007, switching from a read-only document?

Question

Ok, so I was looking at a document and writing in it, and I guess i hit something and now all documents are read-only. I cannot save them as others file, or copy and paste them onto other pages, so those don't work.

PLEASE try to help me if you can, I REALLY need these files.

Answer 1

Trial versions are good for 60 days OR 25 uses.  The remaining number of uses should have been displayed every time you entered Word.

You can still use your files if you have access to an older version of Word.  Just download and install the free Compatibility Pack from Microsoft on that machine.

On the other hand, if you’re interested in buying Word, check out this URL, especially the second group of listings.

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/produc...

Note that the higher of the two prices quoted is for a full version of that program and the lower, for upgrades from existing software.  Read the list of upgrade-qualifying software carefully:  MS Works is often one, and may have come on your machine.

Further, if you're a student, you may qualify for the Student/Teacher edition of Office.

Good luck.
