Word 2007 file save as increases file size
Are you using a document that users open, change data then save it as
something else? If so don't do that. Save the document as a template (dotx or dotm if it has macros) and tell the users to create new documents from it. It should both eliminate the problem and reduce the risk of a user screwing it up' -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Roberta" wrote in message ...

I pressed send prematurely
 Check also that the file save format the user is saving to is not doc. docx formats are compressed whereas doc isn't. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Roberta" wrote in message ...
