Field the "Permission Currently Restricted" Error


The Problem:

I tried to open a document created in Word for Windows, but it displayed the message "Permission for this document is currently restricted."

The Solution:

Okay, you really are stuck this time. This message means that the document is protected with Windows-only information rights management.

The only fix is to have a Windows user unprotect the document for you by opening the document in Word 2003 and choosing File Permission Unrestricted Access. You can't unprotect it in Word for the Mac.
