Difficult to help you with so few information.

Please ask you coworker to start XMLmind XML Editor using 
<XXE_install_dir>\bin\xxe-c.bat rather than the usual way (which is 
running <XXE_install_dir>\bin\xxe.exe) and then, send us *all* the 
messages printed in the command prompt (AKA DOS window) associated to 
xxe-c.bat.



It's probably an out of memory error. A possible solution for this 
problem is found in this FAQ:

Note that if your "large file" contains many high-resolution images, 
another workaround is to:

1) Open a smaller document having the same document type as the large one.

2) Select menu item "View|Display Images|as Bounding Boxes" (or "as 
Thumbnails"). See 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/viewMenu.html

3) Select menu item "Options|Customize Configuration|Use Current View 
Settings as Default". See 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/customizeConfigurationMenu.html

4) Restart XMLmind XML Editor and open the  "large file".
