Thanks John,

I had tried deleting the preference file but got an error so had to put it 
back.  I still got the error so ran permission repair and ran text edit again.  
I got lucky and was able to close the file and say don't save and now, all is 
well.

Take care!

    The problem is, with the Resume feature, Text Edit is going to reopen the 
same window.  You need to try to delete the Text Edit preference file in your 
user library or find the Text Edit entry in the Saved Application State folder 
of your user library and delete that file.  


Take Care
