Close Apache OpenOffice, open your file manager and browse for the
folder where your file is stored. In that same folder check for a file
that looks like .~lock.xxxx.xxx# where xxxx.xxx is the same as the name
of your file eg. a filename test.odt would have a "lock" file named
.~lock.test.odt# Delete that lock file, then open your file again and
the file should no longer be locked.
