Document freezes MS-Word

[Gabriel Menini]

Hello,

I am using MS-Word XP. We have a document which contains about 110 pages
and a 10-15 images.

The document freezes Word and sending it to a network printer is a mess.
The PC becomes very slow and the user isn't able to perform any other tasks.

How can I improve the document quality or Word behaviour in order to
avoid this annoyance?

Thanks in advance,

Hello, Anup.

I don't have Norton installed.
And if I open that doc in Wordpad I may be loosing format.

Hi Gabriel,

If you can actually send the document to the printer, then I don't understand
what you mean by "the document freezes Word".

Assuming you are able to open it in Word, try saving it as a Web page (Word's
round-trip HMTL format). Close, open it again, save as a Word document and see
if that works any better.

If there's no difference, try the same steps, but saving as RTF.

With luck, one or both conversion sequences will drop any damaged binary file
structures that Word may have trouble processing (thus slowing things down).
