MS Office Forum / Word / Setup / May 2004Slow toggle between two documents
I have a client who has Word 2002 on a Pent IV, 2.8GHz, 512MB with very little running in the startups. Should be fast. But when he has two documents running at the same time and toggles from one to the other, it can take from 2 to 10 seconds for the computer to paint the screen with the other document. He also has Adobe Acrobat 4.0 which is a known Word 2002 problem, but I don't think it makes this issue. Anyone else seen this? How large are the documents? How complex? Print view rather than normal view?

I know I'm always on print view on computers that have way, way less RAM and CPU than this one. Don't know the size of the docs but as small and simple as it gets. They both have two words on them, "test one" and "test two". I made them just to test this issue. I'm sure it would be worse with larger documents. >-----Original Message----- >How large are the documents? How complex? Print view rather than normal [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > >. Shot in the dark... Does he have Norton AV? If so, have him turn off the office plug-in. It doesn't help anything.

I have similar toggling problems with Word 02 and have disengaged Norton AV Office plug-in. Didn't help. Any other ideas? I'll be at his office tomorrow night. I'll try the Norton deal. It's weird, this is one of the fastest computers I've been on in a while and it pauses when you toggle between two Word docs. >-----Original Message----- >I have similar toggling problems with Word 02 and have [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > >. I have the same problem with toggling between Word docs - but only when connected to my home wireless network. It doesn't happen with other applications, just Word. And only happens when I'm on the wireless. Did you ever figure out the problem? >-----Original Message----- >I'll be at his office tomorrow night.
