In Word, try turning off all the "autocorrect" and "autoformat" features in the Tools menu (and/or in preferences as well). Also, you should try rebooting with no Extensions (holding down Shift), and then launching and running your Office apps. They will have to reinstall their library files and may come up as if for the first time, but otherwise they should run with no other extensions. Use them long enough in that state to determine whether or not the slowdown is still occurring. My suspicion is that it will not, and that your basic problem is some kind of extension conflict. Worst case, you will <rule out> extension conflicts this way if the problem persists. > Any feed back would be welcomed.
