Well, it is only WP7 that occasionally freezes. I think I've seen people 
complaining about that just after 7 came out. I probaly have an early release 
too ...

The problems occur converting from Word7 not WP*.* ... But happily I have

I can't :-(  It is probably also a consequence of the quoting by your editor.
As I'm a moderator in another echo I'm not going to experiment with my setup 
by trying another editor. I do not want to risk hiccups in the connections. 
Setting things up as they are was already painful enough ;-)
