Default Comparing Two Documents?

It's recently been mentioned here that the theoretical maximum for a
Word file is 32Mb (of text, not counting graphics etc.) -- so maybe
you are indeed exceeding its capacity! How did you manage to create
such big files?

If you cut them in half, everything will probably work fine.

Hi there!

And thanks for helping me out!

I tried it - open up my doc in Word 2003- go to Tools -Compare and
Merge Documents - another session of work opens up and then I get the
old 'not responding....

I am trying to view logs from an application - about 34 megs of txt
each document - Word should be able to handle that one would hope...
