Editing objects (eg Equation editor) in Word or Powerpoint doc

[Guest]

Editing a microsoft Equation Editor expression give the error message "Word
cannot open the document: user does not have access privileges."
I am having NO success trying to edit a simple equation in Word or
Powerpoint.
This also happens with other inserted objects eg excel chart.

I have no problems carrying this out on my work computer and previously on
this home computer. I have wasted hours on chasing this including
reinstalling Office.
Can anyone help? I would be forever grateful.

If you're using Norton AntiVirus, disable the Office PlugIn (Options >
Miscellaneous).
