    Default You can't use Contribute to edit this type of file

    I've updated a few pages from a website, so they're just variations of pages
    that used to work with Contribute. Now I'm getting a message--on some of
    them--that "you can't used Contribute to edit this type of file." These are
    html files with the extension htm. They contain tables. They are based on
    templates. They don't seem to have any other distinguishing properties. Exactly
    what kind of files don't work? What might I be doing wrong? I teach this at a
    college & my students are as puzzled as I am.
