To avoid large complicated files overloading your system:

Here's a checklist :

You need to do all these things:

*       Upgrade your RAM to the max.

*       Run PC cleanup

*       Run disk fragmentor

*       When working, always restart your computer periodically if you have
been using complicated files for a while as they always leave stuff clogging
up the RAM that wont go away till you restart.

*       Repaste the doc into another empty one..(.if you can do this without
messing up the styles.)

*       Don't use overkill virus control (such as Norton.) 

*       Check for Spyware

 

Now email me offline if you don't know how to do any of these things by now.


Note you didn't say what your op system and configuration is (how much RAM
do you have and is it Windows XP?)

Hi guys

 

I am using Word 2007 for a document with lots of tables.  My document has
now reached 4mb and is pushing the limits of my system.  I have worked on
much larger documents (up to 20mb) on this computer, but am thinking that
the effort of repaginating all those tables is the problem.  I intend to
keep the tables - they are much easier to maintain than numbered lists and
floating graphics, and I would rather not split the file.

 

Can anyone tell of me of any utilities that are designed to clean up the
computer, the RAM, the document, the screen shots - anything that will
reduce file size or free up some  "grunt" for my computer to handle this
file.

 

Short of that, I will have to upgrade my computer, as there is bigger and
nastier to come.

 

Ta, Christine
