Locked?

[JDx-D]

I've been using Microsoft Word Office '07 since I got my laptop.
It has been working fine up until a few nights ago, what happens, is that
every time I try to start a new Doc. I get this message and the bottom left
hand corner of my screen that reads "This Modification is not allowed because
the selection is locked"
I've tried everything in my power to diagnose the problem, I've tried re
downloading, looking it up in the Help options and tools options.

Can someone help me please, I would like to get back to what I have started
and CANNOT afford to lose what was saved. Thank You.
