The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Word 2001 for Macintosh

This article was previously published under Q284295

SYMPTOMS

When you scroll through or work in a document that contains multiple tables or tables with complex formatting, you may notice that Word 2001 for Mac responds slowly.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur when a table is designated as a floating table.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, download and install the Microsoft Office 2001 Service Release 1 file. To do so, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.aspx?pid=download&location=/mac/download/office2001/update_905.xml&secid=10&ssid=25&flgnosysreq=True

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, until you install Microsoft Office 2001 Service Release 1, view the document in normal view.

Normal view is a draft view and therefore does not require the repagination and precision that page layout view requires.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

This problem was corrected in Microsoft Office 2001 for Mac Service Release 1.
