Here is a recent experience I had with word 2000. I imported a Word
(Office XP) file that was 1.4M into Word 2000. After a few hours of
editing this 15 page document, the file size had grown to 22.9M! Even
deleting everything in the document did little to reduce the file
size. I saved it as an RTF document which reduced the file size to
1.4M. I then saved it as a Word 2000 document and the size went down
again to only 176K. I did not have "Allow fast saves" on. I did have
"Allow background saves" on, but I don't know if that has any effect.
