A quick check on Google and I found this:

"If you see this message at the bottom of the application window when you try to modify a document: "This modification is not allowed because the document is locked," the document is protected with an editing restriction of No changes (Read only) or Comments in Word 2003 (or a restriction of Comments in Word 2002 and Word 2000). The document author used the Protect Document features to restrict editing. Menu commands also might be unavailable, depending on the permissions that were granted to you by the document author.

Note When you open a document that is protected by Information Rights Management (IRM) in Word 2003, you might have permission to view the document but not to change it. When you open the document, the Shared Workspace task pane opens by default on the right side of the application window. In the task pane, click View My Permissions to see your permissions."

Not a great help I know... but maybe just 'select all' > copy and then paste into a new document? Then you can edit till your hearts content...

Probably means it's read only, you can save it with another name or just close it, unchecked 'Read Only' and save it again... unless it's held on a locked drive in which case the first option is the one you want.

Old Thread Alert!
