Default Saving Word 365 in .docx results in denial of access

I have Office 365 installed on my MacBook Air, OS 10.14.2.


I have 100 short articles saved in one folder. Reviewed all these a couple of days ago and on closing each one I 'saved' as most had small changes.
Each file (page) had it's own previously saved destination with prefix number, i.e. 201 Tiltle.docx. All 100 files are in a single folder.

Attempting to open one just now I receive a Grant File Access, additional permissions are required. On selecting the file file I 'grant access'.

This results in another dialog box, "MS Word cannot open the document: user does not access privileges.


What have I done wrong ?

Is it possible to effect a blanket change such that all these files will open on command ?

My Mac also runs Word for Mac 2011, I found I can open these files in the 2011 version however this is very time consuming.

Default Problem overcome

My saving and opening problem with .docx format seems to have resolved itself.
Went searching in Microsoft's forum, read of similar issues, found a few tricks to try.
I closed Word, reopened it, went to preferences to ensure "Show Document Gallery when opening Word" was checked (it was).
I then opened several files in several different folders, all opened as per normal.


Probable cause was, under my breath I was mumbling about resorting to Apple's "Pages"... (I really can't abide by Pages, it's in the too hard basket)



Anyway, now much relieved !
