After translating a doc-file in SDL Studio 2014 Word displayed a warning and opened the file in protected mode.
I opened the file in OOWriter and saved it under another name. After that Word opened it without resistance.
What could be the cause? I have never seen this before.

Powerpoint and Excel can display this message as well. It means that the.doc is faulty.

Open the original .doc in Word. If this works, SDL is the culprit. If not, complain to your customer.

I forgot to mention that. I should maybe report this to SDL.
