What is a good software to remove MSWORD restrictions?

Question

I have a MS WORD file, I can't edit, select and cute & paste nothing at all from the file.

What is a good software to remove these MSWORD restrictions?

Answer 1

You would have to contact the original creator of the document and have them send you an unprotected one.

If they will not then there is a reason that it is protected and it would not be a good idea to break that protection without permission from the original author.  

Answer 2

I have used and taught MSWord for years and never heard of "restrictions," other than operator problems. If you are using an illegal copy of Word, of course, that's the problem. If you don't have Word, what are you using to try to open it?  

Answer 3

ive never known an ms word file to have such restrictions have you tried right clickign the file and opening in a notepad?

are you on the right user to access the document?

does it have any password or lock on it?
