There's been correspondence about delays using the PIM with Word 5.  I'm
sure I'm not the only user who's using the PIM but routinely converting to
text citations to save time and memory.  The PIM is great for verifying
bibliographies without having to creat a duplicate document, but the
markers can give problems particularly if you do global style changes or
if you want to move citations around. I recently accidentally converted an
entire manuscript to superscript, which of course my grammar and spell
checker couldn't see.  I now convert to text citations every time I save.
Convert back when I want to format using the PIM.  The PIM markers also
increase the size of your file significantly ( I haven't quantitated that).

Generally satisfied user,

Jim Cummins
