Sorry for the delay.
This happens on any .xlr file with 400 permissions (read-only). This is not 
related to being marked read-only on a windows share as I have transfered the 
file to a test system and marked it read-only using the linux permissions.
I have attached a file that this specifically happens on.
It is a calculation program and the cells A7, B7, C7, D7 and E7 should be 
altered to calculate a price.
However when opened in read-only mode the cells themselves are read-only not 
the file. I think this behaviour is not expected.
I would expect the cells to allow modification but the file not to be 
"save-able".

I will also be raising a bug with Writer as well as it seems this is the
norm for Writer too as an .odt document can not be altered from within
Writer if it is read-only. Again I don't think this is the expected
behaviour.
