Problem with Excel compatibility mode

    Hi, I am trying to edit an excel project I am working on which I have been working on from a computer in work. When I try to open it up on my home computer it doesn't allow you to edit anything as it is locked in compatibility mode and says read only at the top of the screen. I am not even sure if I actually have excel on my home computer or if it is just a trial version and my trail has ended or something. Can anybody please advise?
    Thanks

    Try "Save As" with a different name on your home computer first and see if that helps?

    I don't think (but couldn't swear) that MS do trial versions Excel.
