Read only file

Post by sunshinemst »

I have a large file (spread sheet) with bills paid & taxes. Some how I hit something & my file came up read only. Is there any way I can get it out of a read out file or do I have to retype 6 months of information? I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.

A simple solution is to use the menu File -> Save As and save the read-only document with a new name in a folder like Documents (if you have WIndows).
