when I double click a document it takes forever to load

[Lisa]

I have windows XP and Office 2000. and when I double click a document in
windows explorer it loads really slowly. But when I have word or wxcel
already opened and open the document from there it opens fine. I don't know
what happened.

It could also be doing this because I was working on a project on my Laptop
which is vista and Office 2007 and I have a network set up with a wireless
router. So I had the project open both on the xp computer and the Vista
computer so maybe something is conflicting.

Is the document you are trying to load NOT on the laptop and you are trying
to load it from a desktop through the wireless? That can take time as well.

Also, Vista and Offcie 2007 can be memory hungry and that maybe a factor as
well.

Good luck

Well I opened both documents on the laptop and the desktop. Now ever since I
had done that all the documents on the desktop take forever to load.
Everything on the laptop opens fine. So I'm not too sure what has happened as
to why the stuff on the desktop wont open properly.
