"Yesterday afternoon, I had a whole bunch of Word documents open at once

Word essentially had a nervous breakdown and bombed out with one of
those
error messages saying that "Word is being forced to close down."
Now I realize that the reality of Word is that it can bomb at any time
for
any reason, but I was wondering if having too many documents open at
once is
a "known issue." If it is, I can just try to avoid the situation in the
future -- kind of like the joke where the guy says to the doctor,
"Doctor,
it hurts when I do this," and the doctor says, "Well then don't do
that!""
That happens to me all the time, but much more with ::shudders:: Vista
than
it did with XP...but I won't get into that.
