Word documents convert to read only in Pages

jamac

Newcomer to Mac. Using Pages. I have my word documents on a drive and have been working on them in Pages. When I try to save them I am given a message that they are read only. I did't make them read only. How can I stop this happening.

I am not 100% sure about this, but I think that pages can read a word document, but can't save a word document. So if you open in pages, do a "save as" as a pages document and all should be fine in the future with that file.
