Default Spreadsheet automatically opens as 'read-only'

Hi,
I'm trying to open a shared document and edit it - I've been able to do so
previously (about a week ago), but for some reason now it automatically opens
as read only. I do not get asked if I want to (as was the case before). Also,
I do not get prompted to say that the file is open for editing by another
user.

I have checked the properties for this file and it is not set to read only.
I am a domain admin and have full control of the file.

I was sure it was some caching issue as I've fixed it before. I've cleared
all temp files and rebooted, but it still opens as read-only...can someone
please help!

Thankyou :)
