Default Document ForceSaves as ReadOnly

Hi,



I have a template form (.dotm) that users use to fill in a complex form. Once the user has filled in the form, they can save the document (.docx) anywhere on their local machines or network.

The main issue I have is that when the users try to open the saved file (.docx), the content is not editable anymore (ReadOnly). How can I resolve this issue? I have tried using different macros, but still no luck.

Thanks in advance.

The read-only setting is probably the result of the code you're using applying read-only restrictions and/or setting the read-only recommended attribute. Without seeing it, though, I can't say for sure.
