How Do You Delete an Excel File that Shows to "Access Denied"

[Guest]

We have 2 Excel files which are titled Copy of Draft Register and Copy of
Copy of Draft Register. When we try to delete it, it says "Access Denied".
If we go to "save" these files it shows they're "Read Only"

Is the file open?

If you don't think they should be, visit Debra Dalgleish's site:

Maybe...
