SORTED!!

Hi all,

I downloaded OO and am now working with a document in the Writer. However, when I go to the menu, hardly any of the controls work, they are greyed out - how do I get these working?

Any help appreciated! :beer:

Edit: Sorted this now - just realised it's actually because the document I'm working on has been locked or something in Word so I can't amend certain parts - other docs are working fine. D'oh!!

Thanks anyway!! :beer:
