What is the full text of the error 6124 message? Typically, it's:
Error 6124: You are not allowed to edit this section because it is protected.
That suggests a couple of possibilities:
1. It's being opened from a protected location (e.g. an email attachment); or
2. You have applied editing restrictions to the document and haven't allowed 'everyone' access to the content control concerned.
