I just edited a 200-page manual using Track Changes in Word 97 on
Windows XP. Crashes just don't happen here.
But maybe that's not large enough. I could do a test if you like. I'll
double the size or triple the size and see what happens. I predict
that it will still not crash. Word 97 has never crashed in 2.5 years
of use on this lovely little Windows XP Home Edition machine.
