Large file hangs when doing a Find in Office 2007.

[Stan Hackney]

I have a large file (approximately 142 pages - no graphics) which hangs in
Word 2007 when I perform a Find operation. The first "find" works. But when
I click on find next it hangs.

I have tried it on several computers running Vista Business and Office 2007
SP1 with the same results. The problem does not occur when I use this file
in Office 2003.

Any ideas would be greatly appeciated.

The following hotfix addresses some Find/Replace hangs... not sure if it
would fix your issue:
