A quick check of the file type and I see the problem - and it looks
like a bug.
You can manually correct it if you want:
- Open an Exploring window
- Go to Tools/Folder Options
- Select the File Types tab
- Select the "Microsoft Excel Worksheet" file type (XLS)
- Click the "Advanced" command
- Select "Open as Read Only"
- Click "Edit"
- Change the DDE message to:
[open("%1",,1)]
- For Word edit the Microsoft Word Document file type (DOC)
- Change the DDE Message to:
[AppShow][REM _DDE_ReadWriteOnSave][FileOpen .Name="%1",.ReadOnly=1]
