SYMPTOMS
========

When you open a Word document that contains an object and then attempt to move
the object, the following error message may appear:

  There are too many edits in the document. This operation will be incomplete.
  Save your work.

This error message may appear even if you did no other editing prior to moving
the object.

CAUSE
=====

Word cannot move the object if you have insufficient disk space.

In Windows, this amount of space is determined by the available space in your
temporary (TEMP) directory (you designate this directory using the SET TEMP
statement).

RESOLUTION
==========

Free some disk space (in Windows, free space on the drive that contains the TEMP
directory).
