I have been having problems with my Office applications. Every application I go into will not let me open a new document, make changes to exiting files, save or print. I keep seeing this message at the bottom saying the application is locked for editing. Can you please tell how to get rid of this?

A quicker way is to open one of the Office apps, click on Help > Detect and Repair and let it run. If that doesn't fix it I would definitely do a virus scan and spyware scan, and try to repair it again. If that doesn' get it then I would go with the total uninstall/reinstall. If you can run a registry cleaner on your system before the reinstall. Office leaves behind a lot of registry gunk.
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem. Also please exercise your best judgment when posting in the forums--revealing personal information such as your e-mail address, telephone number, and address is not recommended.
