Spinning beach ball or slow down or freeze on opening windowssourced Word doc

M

Marco Coulter

I open a word doc that was emailed to me from a windows user.
I see the document open and can see the first screen of it quickly. Then
Word freezes and if I click on the scroll bar, nothing happens and I get the
spinning beach ball. This lasts for a few minutes then the document is
usable in a normal way. [other programs running work fine during this time,
it only seems to impact Word]
There are no graphics, or linked material that would cause the scroll to
generate processor overhead.
It does not happen with documents created in Word for OS X.

Is anyone experiencing this or am I imagining it.


Thanks, ...Marco.
