Go to your RA2 file, select your map that you want and right click on it. Select open with..Mircosoft word. Thats the file that can be edited, if you know what you are doing. I have only edited in this a couple of times.

Do not EVER use MS Word or MS Works for map editing. They add their own header information, which can sometimes make maps unusable. Use WordPad or Notepad for best effect.
