Hi,

I use Microsoft Office Word 2007 on Vista.

When i try to open a document i get the below
error -
" You have exceeded the maximum number
of pages supported by Microsoft Office Word"

I wonder how can that document got saved if
it is more than the maximum number of pages
supporte by Microsoft Office Word.

If i exceed the number of pages while creating
the document, the error message appears valid.
But, how does it appear while opening a
document ?
A strange error - Shouldn't the error message
occur only while saving ? Any ideas ?

Thx in advans,
Karthik Balaguru

Hi karthikbalaguru,

It seems your document has become corrupted. I trust you have a backup somewhere.

The message is actually possible if the document was created using some
different tool than Word to start with. For example, it could be created
with Open Office Writer. And while the document might be valid according to
the specification, it could be that Word just can't handle it.

I believe Macropod is correct though and the document is most likely
corrupted as it would have to be enormous to make Word display that error.
