Word 2003 Refreshes Slow

[Guest]

I was recently upgraded from Word 2000 to Word 2003 and every time I open any
of my word documents it seems Word is slow to catch up. I have a document
that is 46 pages long with tables and text boxes. When I copy a text box and
paste it I have to switch views in order to see the pasted text box. When I
drag the text box and place it in a new location I have to again switch views
in order to see the text box that I had just dragged to a new location.

Also when I try to draw a textbox outside of the last column on my table
(all the way to the right) the drawing tools disable themselves and I was
able to do this in Word 2000.

Any Advise on how I can fix these problems?

Thanks,

Hi Marilyn

I suggest that you:
- update the latest driver for your printer from the website of the printer
manufacturer
- update the latest driver for your video card from the website of the video
card's manufacturer

Hope this helps.
