Should whoever creates these files be making them write protected? I've

got

ones that I purchased and ones that I got for frree and non are write
protected, I would have thought that would be the thing to do. I am
presuming that write protection is a parameter than is part of the file,

or

maybe not, perhaps it's a setting of your PC system. Anyone know? TIA.

If you got them off a cd then it is probably just a setting of the

computer.

Find the file on the hard drive or move it to the hard drive. using
something like Windows Explorer. Then see if it is set as read only. If

so

uncheck that block.


Thing is, I cannot understand why these files are not read only. Whether
copied from CD or downloaded.

What difference does it make, Richard? You can just go back to the
original file if needs be.
