Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 97812
Spread sheet opens R/W after making changes cannot save to file.

I opened a 2.4 spread sheet in 3.0. Using Save As saved the sheet. The spread sheet remained read only with the new name. Exited the application and reopening the saved version 3 spread sheet, than go to Save, the progam reports the the file can not be saved as I lack permissions to do so. This has occurred after selecting the file name in Explorer with it is open on the desktop and after have the spread sheet has set open for 12 plus hours without doing any activity in the spread sheet. I do not know if I am doing something incorrectly, but it is not following what I'd call a logical flow. Or I need help in selecting and setting my permissions.
I also notice the the ".~lock.200901_Trading_V3.ods#" are not being removed after the application is closed. Cloud this be the cause of the lack of permission? Delteing them does allow me to save the spreadsheets after their removal.
The ODS# file is the cause of the permissions problem. Whenever that file is present the spread sheet cannot saved. As soon as the ODS# file is deleted the Calc application saves the spread sheet and exits. The ODS# file in version 3 never gets deleted by the application. In Version 2.41 the file is remove on exiting the application.
Please attach the spreadsheet.
