Word Slow in Opening Documents from Network Server
We are running into a problem when trying to do a Local Open from within Word
2002 where the documents reside on one of our local servers. It takes several minutes for the list of documents to populate after choosing File | Open. The size of the folder is 1.68 GB but there are 65,515 files listed. We are running Windows XP, SP2 and the computers have 512 MB of RAM. Is there a limitation as to how many files should reside in a folder to be productive in quickly opening same? Is there any workaround? |
