Thanks. My feelings exactly - re the file as a whole. And the authors, but
we mustn't criticise them!

You can count me twice if you like :-)
No doubt you have heard the phrase "pushing the envelope", well I think you
have burst through it some megabytes ago :-)
After reading the many and varied comments on this list and personal
experiences with Word I have to admit that I am impressed that you can even
manage to get this document to function at all :-)
So many cross references AND so many tables AND so many graphics. There is
NO doubt in my mind that you will continue to have difficulties until you
cut this doc into smaller pieces. Even then you could still have problems.

I doubt that Micro$oft would be able to give you a definitive answer on
this. While there may be a "magic number" somewhere, I think that any such
magic limit would be strongly influenced by the other document aspects - eg
your tables/graphics/crossrefs etc.

Peter.
