Created attachment 46911 [details] Word document downloaded from Renishaw careers website A word document downloaded from the Renishaw careers website is opened as read-only and cannot be edited. The document contains a form and is uneditable. When I try to select Edit Mode under Linux LibreOffice asks me for a password. The same problem is encountered with the latest release of OpenOffice for Windows XP, but in this case no password is asked for. The document remains uneditable. Microsoft Word opens the document as normal and allows editing without any problems. I am running OpenSuse 11.3 standard release with LibreOffice 3.3.1 I have attached the Word document.
