"Document" being used by

[drhugh]

I have enclosed a screen shot (boy am I getting good at that) of an ongoing problem. Whenever I open a my documents document, I get this missive. Then I have to click on cancel and the doc comes up and everything is fine.
I feel like I have 2 sets of everything I save. It is like there is a shadow document for every one I create. How can I find out if this is the case and how do I fix it. Or why am I getting this missive? Thanks

You forgot the screen shot

It was there last night. Looks like it was deleted. The message was basically "the document xxxxx is open by user yyyyyyy - do you want to open a copy?"

Here is the scree shot. Sorry this took so long but I was having a problem with managing my attachments. SO what do you think? am I saving everything twice and don't know it?

You've messed that screenshot up good and proper, it's too small to read, and I can't even zoom in on it. Have another go.

Hmmm. Well when I click on it in the thread, I do get a very small image but if I click on it again I get a Magnify glass with a + in the center and So I click on it and it goes big. I posted it as a PNG as you suggested in another thread. It is also using up 126KB of my attachment space on this site. I will send another if you want. Thanks

I clicked through and did a screen shot.
