Hi
The files you save on a CD(R) become Read-Only.
Once you restore these files from your CD onto your hard drive, remember to
reset their attribute by UNticking "Read-only" on the files properties.

My computer recently crashed and I was able to back-up my data from my
hard
drive to a cd before I did a system restore. I have MS Office 2000. I am
trying to open an Excel file from the cd and I get the following message:

"Cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to
access a read-only location. Or, the server the document is stored on may
not
be responding. Access is denied."

When I try to change the properties of the file and take off the read-only
attribute, I get the following message:

"An error occurred applying the attributes to the file. Access is denied."

I also tried doing an xcopy of the file to the hard drive and I get the
same
message. There are other Excel files on the same cd which open just fine.
How
can I open this file?
