Wait (hourglass) cursor constantly flashing after loading large file

[didlinghill]

Hello,

I have just loaded a large book MS of mine (76,000 words) into Word 2010. It is a .doc file created in an older version of Word (97?). It is displayed perfectly, but the "wait" hourglass cursor constantly flashes, and so does the "?" on the right-hand side of the bottom bar. When I click on this, "Language Bar Help" is momentarily displayed, but even if I click again, nothing changes.

I have masses of RAM, that's not the problem. The MS contains a very few Spanish words - is that being picked up? What can I do? I can't even save or minimise the page... can anyone please help?



Regards,
Alec.
