When attempting to open a MS Word document from a floppy
drive on our desktop computer (no network), I receive the
following message: "File in Use -- [filename] locked for
editing by "another user" Click notify to open a read-
only copy of the document . . ." When I click "Read
Only", I get the error message: "Winword has caused an
error in WINWORD.EXE. Win word will now close. If you
continue to experience problems, try restarting your
computer." I've tried to restart and I receive the same
error -- can't seem to open any files.
 
Copy ALL MS Word files to a harddrive before trying to open OR edit
them. You should NEVER edit Word docs on removable drives.
