Word 2003 document suddenly "locked for editing" by me

Hi lisa,

Try copying the content to a new document and saving that.

As for saving the changes to the global template, I suggest you choose 'no'.

Thanks for the reply, but I am unable to copy anything - since the file has suddenly locked and become "read-only".

Basically I just need to make sure the changes i made to my document are not lost, so need to unlock the document or somehow save it.
