"exceeded pages" error message

[covenanter]

In Word 2007 WP: I'm suddenly getting a locked program with error: You have
exceeded the number of pages that can be supported by microsoft word. There
should be no page number issues with these documents. Occurs after work in
document for 5-10 minutes.

That's strange, considering Word doesn't use "pages" per say, and the
limitation is by file size.

Is this a *.doc or *.docx file? How many pages does your document have? Does
it occur only on a single document? If so, in the Open dialog box, select
the file, click the arrow next to the Open button, and then click Open and
Repair.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.
