83649	2002-09-27 00:47:00	When i am trying to run more than one WORD document at the same time and would like to use ALT/TAB to switch between documents, I only get one doc indication in the ALT/TAB window. If I reduce the windows, I can find the minimised running docs indicated at the bottom of the screen. Anyone any ideas as to how I can have all WORD documents shown separately in the ALT/TAB window.

83651	2002-09-27 01:42:00	Many thanks for your response. The version of WORD is 97 SR-2	garyasta (1151)
83652	2002-09-27 02:16:00	Word 97 does not open separate instances of word for each document, so you can't alt+tab You have to goto window>%documentname% Word 2000 creates a separate instance for eac doc so you can alt+tab. Word XP gives you the option to decide how you want it to work. G P	Graham Petrie (449)

83655	2002-09-27 03:33:00	Try Ctrl+F6 to switch between documents within Word. Mike.	Mike (15)
83656	2002-09-27 03:33:00	Thanks for that but it doesn't do the job. It appears to operate the tab only. Garyasta	garyasta (1151)
83657	2002-09-27 03:38:00	Hi Mike Many thanks. CTRL+F6 appears to do the job!! Garyasta	garyasta (1151)
83658	2002-09-27 04:49:00	Gary, You'll find that Ctrl+F4 will work much the same as Alt+F4, but instead of closing the application, it'll just close the document. So Ctrl+F4 to close the document (and switch to the next one) Ctrl+F6 to just switch to the next document without closing. Mike.	Mike (15)
