Read-only files problem

All my word documents are in Read-only now as something has changed. Me and the wife are the only users and clearly have admin rights. The documents aren't locked, but as you can see i cannot change them to where i can edit them. I have tried clicking on the icon, get info but all seems ok. Someone tell me where i am going wrong please.


Thanks

Where are the documents stored exactly?

What exactly are the permissions shown in the Get Info window - not just for the owner, the whole thing-group (which should be “staff”) has permission to read and write?
