I have one user that has a locked Word file that she used to be able to access. The OS is NT 4.0 and using Office 2000.
When she tries to open the file, Windows states that the file is locked and only available as read only, even though it is not opened and no shares have been created. We had to open a read only file and rename it to be able to access this file. That is a short-term fix, but doesn’t explain the problem.
If she tries to delete the file, she gets a sharing violation and will not allow her to delete it. The path to the file is: WINNT\Profiles\Her Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Recent\filename.
If anyone has any ideas, other than it is a Microsoft product, I would appreciate it. Thanks. Roger(r.growcock@kadasystems.com)
