Hi,
I have a problem where my Word document is setup as read only protection and
has numerous exception ranges where the user is allowed to edit ( several
hundred -- including individual table cells ).
I notice that when the number of exception ranges is reasonably low (less
than 30, or so) Word works well. However, when there are a few hundred
exception ranges the performance is terrible. After turning on the read only
protection there will be a long wait time where Word is processing -- maybe
30 seconds.
If the document is loaded with protection already on the performance hit
doesn't happen until after the user makes a change and then attempts to move
their cursor. Again, 30 seconds of Word spinning with the hourglass cursor.
I notice this problem does not seem to happen with Word 2007. Any ideas if
this is something that has a workaround or maybe even a statement from
Microsoft that the problem is indeed within Word 2003 and is corrected by
Word 2007?
Thanks for any input.
