    Exit Word and rename the Normal template. If the error message is no longer present when you restart Word, you have fixed the problem.

    If the problem remains, an add-in may be responsible. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/troubleshoot/word/issues-when-start-or-use-word#option6 and https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/troubleshoot/word/issues-when-start-or-use-word#option7.

    Without additional context we aren't going to be much help. But just reading the error, the code that is running for whatever event just occurred (e.g. document saved) is attempting to execute a command in Word. However Word does not allow that command while it is handling the event and fails the call. For example, if the code was called when the document was saved and the code attempted to save the document then I could see this error potentially occurring (because you're already trying to save).

    Again, without any additional information including the code that is running and what "event" it is talking about we are just guessing here.

    You had a Word document with VBA code inside. That code fail and you see this commend error.
    On the screen I can see button Debug is lock for editing that means that code is lock for you and you can't see error line to fix it. Probably I go so far, but that your situation looks like.
    So you should to call your sender/friend (creator this document) and talk about that error.

    Regards.
