This normally means (in the Mac world at least) that the memory allocation
to Word is insufficient to open Word and use that document,ie your
document is too big. find the Word icon, highlight it and select "get
info" from the file menu. One of the options is to alter the memory
allocation. If you bump up the preferred size by a few megs your images
should appear in the document on opening.
