One of my coworkers saved a 2007 Excel file as "Read Only" and I don't know
why, but when you open the file, it doesn't say that its "Read Only" but does
say it at the top where the name of the file is that it's "Read Only". Now
when you go to save it, it says it's a "Read Only" file. Now, he would like
to be able to "save-as" to a file that is NOT "Read Only", and when he saves
it as another name it is still Read Only, even though the "Read Only
Recommended" box is not checked HELP!

Click to expand...

Go to Tools>Options> Security Tab then ucheck Read-only recommended
Then Click ok.

This should work.
