Word 2007 - Word Count on opening a document

G

gr8auntieokie

I have a very large Word document where, everytime I open it, Word
recalculates the number of words in the document, and runs and runs and runs,
until it finally "counts" all the words (at least, that's what I think it's
doing) and opens the document. Is there a way to turn off that Word Count
function?? This can take several minutes, and it even recalculates (and
waits) if I just save what I've revised so far and then want to continue
editing, which is verrrry annoying. Thanks.
