I cannot write to a DVD or CD. I either get a message saying the disk could
be write protected or that the "drive is not accessible Incorrect Function".
I do not have any other CD or DVD write programmes installed.
 
*Never* write to CDR/W disc directly from Word. Always work from the hard
disc and copy to and from the CD medium.

If you want to be able to use your documents, when working within Word, act
as if your floppy drive does not exist! (This applies to DVD/CDRW/CDR drives
as well.)
Don't use Word to:
Open a document on a floppy
Print a document on a floppy
Edit a document on a floppy
Save a document to a floppy (not even a copy)

Word regularly trashes documents on floppy drives!

Instead, work on the document using your hard drive. Copy it back and forth
using Windows.

I know that for some with shared computers (libraries, schools) this is a
tough prescription. All I can recommend for that is to use a brand new
formatted disk each time you save and don't do any editing.
