Default Cursor response time slow

I type lots of reports and short reports are no problem, but in a longer
report, page one has a good cursor response time, and page two and three it
gets slower and slower until I almost can't type anything in. I'd like to
know how to solve this problem and make page two or three as fast in showing
the characters on the screen as page one.

G'day "fiberfan" ,

Try a Maggie first: cuttenpaste everything bar the last para mark in
each section to a new document.

Hi Steve,

I follow your advice because I was recently educated on your term
'maggie'. However I doubt the poster does - even 'cuttenpaste' made me
scratch my head at first when I encountered it some time ago. (for
real!)

Don't forget we're from all over the world here and just as you have
trouble with the Kiwi slang we tend to have trouble with Aussie slang.
;-) (I hope I won't be going down the road of Kiwi slang anytime
soon - trying to understand you is difficult enough! G)

G'day "Beth Melton" ,

I must be improving - I normally get a "WTF RU talking about???"
weekly :-) I'll have th work on reprogramming my fingers for that
particular piece of autotext - after I've typed it a million times it
tends to stay stuck :-)

Yar - I will leave our Kiwi friends to their perfect English (we all
muss up the vowels and the Kiwis are the only ones to get it right
natch).
