390497 2005-09-24 04:12:00 I am running WORD 2003 and I have a genealogy file sent to me which is a read only file and I want to correct and save again but I am told that it is a read only file and I can't change it.
I have looked up GOOGLE and find that I can use
CTRL X &
CTRL Q
but so far I have not succeeded in changing.
Operating X P.

But since you probably want to keep a copy of the original, why not just make your changes, then Save As under a different name?
