Try right clicking on the file in Windows Explorer before you open the document. It is probably marked "read only". Clear it and then try opening it in word.

I looked in the book that was provided with my system and I can't find a thing that relates to the following problem. I copy a document from the web to Microsoft Word. When I want to copy the same document from Word to a CD I get the following message. Cannot Save 'E:\Creamy Swiss Onion Soup.doc'. The folder is marked as 'Read Only'. This happens with any document I attempt to file. I used the above system when I was running Millenium with no problem - will XP Home Version not allow you to file in this manner? If not, can someone let me know how I should be doing it. Thanks for your help.
