Hi Haitham

I assume that your file contains pictures or objects like Excel graphs or
Visio diagrams, and that this is causing the large file size. The "disk is
full" message may be an indication of corruption rather than too big a file.

I would do the following:

1. Make a safe backup copy of your document so you can return to it if
necessary.

2. Go through Suzanne Barnhill's list for checking on the causes of large
file sizes, for example at
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...f57a52ad66c9af

3. Follow the instructions for examining and correcting corruption in a Word
document at
How can I recover a corrupt document or template - and why did it become
corrupt?

Hope this helps.

I have a Document that is getting real big (about 50MB).
Any time I try to add to this Document, I get the
following error "The disk is full trying to write to
C::. Free some space on this drive.... ". From here on,
it doesn't mater where I try to save it or how much free
space I have, I still get the same error.

I know MSWord 2000 and up has a file size limitation of
32MB. Is there anyway around this limitation without
having to fragment the document and lose the automatic
Paragraph numbering?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
