Passive Voice?

Joe 90 · 10-11-2009, 21:14

I'm trying to write to a professional standard despite the fact that i've not done any decent writing since i left school. It makes "the highest professional standard suitable for publication purposes" a little difficult to achieve.

Word keeps picking me up on grammatical errors which it refers to as the use of 'passive voice'

Could someone possibly make some sense of this for me? I can't correct is without understanding it
