Thanks Bill. I reposted the same message with better wording 'cause I got an
email response to the first one to the effect that 'it didn't take.'

The SHIFT+F5 thing will work but can Word be started with the document last
worked on already open.

I often work with several documents open moving amongst them by clicking
under Windows on the taskbar. At the end of the day, upon exiting Word and
shutting down the computer, it would be nice when I come in the next day just
to open Word and have all those documents already open and waiting than to
try to recall which ones I was using. Guess I'm spoiled.

In WordPerfect there is an option to 'Save Workspace on Close' in which a
prompt appears when closing the program. Answering 'Yes' retrieves and
displays the last document worked on at the point it was last saved
('Quickmark' bookmark). Does Word have a similar feature? If so, how is
it
activated?
