Re: file too big "fumei via OfficeKB.com" <u37563[ at ]uwe> 12/12/2008 8:49:00 PM No, it is a real limit to Word 2002. Although the 32 Mb limit is for text only. From Microsoft: The maximum file size is limited to 32 MB for the total document text only and does not include graphics, regardless of how the graphics image is inserted (Link to file, Save with document, or Wrapping style) into the document. Therefore, if the file contains graphics, the maximum file size can be larger than 32 MB. However, 32Mb of text...is a LOT of text!
