Unlocking a master document from the master document

To unlock a master document from the master document itself, you don’t need to know from which project copy it was locked. However, you can find out easily with the Show Project Copies command.

To unlock a master document from the master document itself:

1. Select the master document to be unlocked.
2. From the Document menu, select Master/Project Copy, and click Unlock from Project.

The red lock icon next to the master document in the Navigation view will disappear and its Locked property will be set to No indicating that the document has been unlocked.
