Ditto.  Same problem.  Word seems to go "off the air" usually for good
but sometimes for 10-20 seconds.  VERY strange.  I got rid of a few
inits and the problem stopped.  Gradually I put the inits back (when I
needed them) and the problem has not reappeared.  I suspect that the
fact the problem went away had nothing to do with the inits but I
cann't think of anything else.

Configuration is SE/30  Word 4.0  6.something system and finder.
