A coilleague is forced to use Word 2000 (as he is only in two days a week) on
site. He is working on a Word 2000 text document in Windows 98 that requires
graphics that we create in SPSS PC using Windows XP and export to *.JPG
files.
The Word 2002 file we create to place the *.JPGs in order is only 59Kb.
When my colleague copies and pastes these graphics in sequence from the Word
2002 document, his resuliting Word 2000 document bloats from a manageable
150Kb document to 23Mb causing all manner of memory problems on his Windows
98 box.
Why is this happening and what should we do about it? Without any
foreknowledge, we're guessing the problem has something to do with "backwards
compatibility. Still one would think that the newer code of Word would
trump the old and fix this problem automatically. Please explain what
specifically is occuring.
Thank you for your time.
