When copying a Excel 2003 file to a computer with Windows 95, Excel
version 7
and then opening the file, I get a dialog box asking if I want to open as
a
read-only file? I don't want to open it as a read-only file and I don't
want
to be asked this each time. In File-Open dialog box, the read-only box is
not
checked. Is there a way to get around this?

Are you saving the file as "Microsoft Excel 5.0/95 Workbook" or just as a
"Microsoft Excel Workbook" which would obviously be an Excel 2003 file?
