Default Re: file not delete.....ubuntu

what ever the file is u can delete it as root.but before try to restore ur file.doc to be read by writer.do as following..open the location where the file exists and right click to "open a terminal here".then do as follows:
Code:
~$sudo chmod 777   filename.doc
now after this,try to open the file with oowriter.

Do it as follows if u want to delete ur file.open up a terminal
and do as follows.open the location where the file exists and right click to "open a terminal here".
Code:
~$sudo rm    -r      filename.doc
^ when prompted,give ur user password and press enter.check again fo file to be there.
U must have the permissions wrong.
