In Office 2007 I have a 102 -page document with a Table of Contents.
Response is now slow while I'm working within this document. For example:
Copy and pasting small amounts of text (1 - 4 words), selecting fields, an
so on. Is there a suggested size threshold, after which performance begins
to degrade? Are there setting I can change to improve performance? ... Or
should I split into separate documents?

Thank you
 
Are there a lot of graphics? Are several other apps open? Do you have
limited memory? Do you have a virus? 102 pages isn't challenging in
itself at all.

You may be running into Background Repagination. You can get it to
stop doing this (either by unclicking the option in Word Options >
Advanced or) by working in Draft View (the rightmost of the little
icons to the left of the Zoom controls at the lower right).
