The problem is unlikely to be file size as such. I managed to open a 98 Mb file today without problem. It's more likely the later Microsoft XML format used in association with "advanced" features of the Microsoft application in question. Support for the more commonplace content is fairly trouble free. I very rarely find a Microsoft Office file I can't open but, with some diagramming features, for instance, the presentation of the said diagram sometimes needs a little cleaning up after it's been through LibreOffice and then saved back to a Microsoft format. That might also possibly be related to receiving a Microsoft XML file and afterwards saving it to one of the older formats... Personally, I tend to receive MS files, save them in an ODF format (.odt, etc.), work on them, then save back to MS format right at the end...
