Apparently Word 2003 Help no longer has the info that the max size is
32MB--whether this is because there is no longer a max, or just part of the
general downgrade of Help in Office 2003, I don't know.

Was your 47MB document all text? That didn't include any graphics? And
which version were you using?

Good to know if the limits are higher--for the few people who will take
advantage of that.

I just finished working on a 47 meg document. It exceeded 10,000
pages. I worked with it carefully and patiently, saving and backing
up, to find/replace and do formatting. Once I got that done, I saved
it into sepearate documents, one for each volume. None is more than 8
megs, and now the true editing is going along swimmingly.
