Message: [QUOTE="Manos, post: 5145232"] I have a document, actually a book, around 500 pages, with lots of tables and pictures. The file size is 15Mbs. When opening the document in Word 2003 (to a different PC or before installing Office 2007 to my PC), it uses 150Mbs of RAM and 150Mbs of virtual memory and I can edit it flawlessly. When opening the same document in Word 2007 (either in compatibility mode, or after saving it as .docx), it uses more than 1Gb of RAM. After few edits memory usage peaks at 1,8Gbs (95% of system's RAM) and when Word autosaves the program crashes (out of memory, disk full (!?)). Opening two different versions of the same document at the same time is out of the question. Why does Word2007 have to use ALL of the system's RAM? I would be grateful if anyone can offer a solution to this problem. PS Both the system and Office 2007 have all the updates [/QUOTE]
