 Does anyone have a clue as to what the problem is with Word 4.0 and documents
 that have been closed ?  I get file is busy messages when trying to use these
 files while word is still open, and messages to insert floppies from whence
 the files came ?

For some reason one seems to need to quit Word before the file is
unlocked.

The problem is that Word is a Microsoft product. Period.
