my lagging problem in Word 2002? I have plenty of memory. Why can't I type
without it lagging & freezing and leaving out letters while I am typing?

There must be some process that's sucking up all your CPU cycles. It may have
nothing to do with Word, you may just see the symptom because you are typing
in Word.

To diagnose it, open Task Manager (right click on TasBar and choose Task
Manager). Open the Process tab. Click on the CPU column header once then
again. The first click sorts all the processes in ascending CPU utilization
sequence and the second sorts them in descending sequence so the busiest
processes are at the top of the list. System Idle should be at the top. Look
for the next busiest process (this is a dynamic situation so it won't always
be the same one) which is predominantly at the top of the list, this will be
your rogue process eating up all your CPU cycles.

That's a start, kill process at your own risk. You may be able to right
click on the rogue process and reduce it's priority. If Word is more
responsive after this then you've pinned the tail on the donkey and you just
have to figure out why this process is taking up all of your CPU cycles.
