Word 2007 slow on big files
I have Windows Vista op system and Word 2007. Whenever a pretty big (25-100
pages) file is open, its very slow to make changes. Specially when I switch to other progrmas and come back to Word document, it hangs for 5-10 sec writing below - Connecting to printer, press ESC to cancel. When I do press ESC Word crashes, if I just wait it comes back and I can work again. But from time to time the same message comes below and sometimes also Not respondig message. It seems there is nothing to do with printing, cause this works. Any ideas? Anything I need to turn off to stop this from happening? I have tried reintalling Office, no help... |

Word 2007 slow on big files
Are you using a network printer? If so, the delay could be due to Word
searching for your network printer driver. Try removing the printer and installing it again using the Add Printer Wizard so the driver will be installed locally instead of on the network. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Melton What is a Microsoft MVP? http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/gp/mvpfaqs "Stina" wrote in message ...
