Hello grandpaw,
Why don't you open a DOS command in Win 98 and when you're in the C prompt or in whichever directory in C type attr -r C:\backup\*.*. For example:

C:>attr -r c:\backup\*.*

This will cancel the read attribute of all files found in the C:\backup directory. They won't be Read-Only files anymore. Perhaps you could edit them thereafter.
