I run thousands of words a month through Word 3.01 with heavily customized
menus, and I've never had it crash.

Word 3.01 is not completely Multifinder compatible. It'lll hang up other
programs running in the background (especially nasty when the background
process is Red Ryder doing a download). it won't deal with the Multifinder
icon on the menubar properly. But I've yet to crash it. Are you running it
in the insanely small memory partition the SIZE resource gives it? Try
putting it in a 640K or larger partition and I'll bet your Word problems go
away. 

The first serious word processor that is MultiFinder compatible will get my
business. I can't afford a program that doesn't cooperate..... The only
question is whether it'll be Word 4.0 or FullWrite....
