Hi,

Someone has set this workbook as read only recommended and this is set in
Tools|Options Secirity tab which you can change. If it's opened as read only
you can save but must choose an new filename.

Another possibility is that the workbook has been made read only in Windows
Explorer and if it has you must change this buy finding the file right
clicking and selecting 'Propreties' and changing the attributes.

Mke
thanks for the advice. I checked the options on the file and it is set to ok
(not read only) and I got into the Tools/options/ security tab but am not
sure which one to change or enable any advice
