I created a spreadsheet and saved it. When I open the document it shows that it was opened as Read Only. I cannot save the document unless I change the name. How do I turn this off?
Help!
Thanks in advance.
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
If you browse to the workbook in Windows Explorer, right-click on it, and select "Properties", go to the General tab and see if the "Read-only" attribute check box is checked.
If it is, uncheck it.

right click the icon in your save location and go to properties. Make sure it is not set for read-only.
