Word freezes when opening some doc-files


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

I have problems of opening some recently created documents.

They are on a network folder and a couple of people must have access to edit them (Word 97 + Word2000)

Word freezes for approx. 3 Minutes before opening them (all Word versions).

Saving again and reopening has the same effect.

The documents are small only one page and Arial font, no graphics.

How can I find out what particular thing makes Word freezing?

Hello. This usually means that Word is looking for network drives or FTP sites that are not available, so right-click on My Computer and select Disconnect Network Drive to disconnect any mapped network drives that are not currently available.

OK, deactivating the network card does work!

But what have I to change in the documents then to work in the network again?

How can I monitor what particular file is word trying to access?
