I am guessing based on the guy's computer I saw. He had a computer using DOS
6.0, and I think he built many, many, many smaller files and just appended
them one right after the other.
I see other answers to my question- have not read them all yet.

Word 2000 is pretty old these days.
How was the file created? If it was created in Word, then check on what
version of Word it was. The version that wrote it should presumably be able
to read it.
MS has been steadily increasing limits on files, etc, with each new release.
