Thanks in advance for the guidance!
--- AOO 4.1.10 on Windows 10 ---
I copied a web article into AOO Writer. After 4th or 5th time editing it, I now can only make a single key stroke before it locks up. Only happens with this file.
I can edit at the end of content. I.e., I can type as many characters as I please below the original content. I can't do the same within the original content.
Copied to a blank Text Document, saved as .doc, and have the same issue.
This isn't happening with my collection of documents, most of which I created in AOO. Just this one file (Well, now 2 files.)
++++++
What did I accidentally activate within this file???

Please upload a sample of that file, we can't possibly guess what's wrong with it based on the information that you gave.

Looks like you hit the 64Kb limit for a single paragraph.
Try dividing the pasted content in more than one paragraph

Try this: Find \n, Replace \n, drop More options and select Regular expressions. Then press Replace All
