Line Numbering - Maximum Number of Lines

[Gnatmom]

Has anyone run into a limit for the maximum number of lines that can be
numbered? I'm working on a very large file (approx. 3500 pages) and needed
to number the lines, but Word stops after line 65534, which is only about
1/3 of the way through the file. Are there any work arounds for this?

No workaround, unfortunately, as this is "by design." See

While the article is for Word 2000, I don't have any reason to believe this
has changed in later versions.
