Documents opening in multiple instances, I want one instance
I'm not familiar with Opera or Firefox, but from your description it
seems as if the SDI interface, which allows you to click buttons for the various document windows on the taskbar should work equally well. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP wrote in message oups.com... No, what I mean is tabbed pages, like how Firefox and Opera browsers display numerous web pages - with tabs at the top. The way that Word makes you go under the "Window" menu to select other documents that you have open is kind of ridiculous, considering this is 2006. Stefan Blom wrote: What tabs? If you mean tab stops, look in Format | Tabs to set tab stops for the currently selected paragraph(s). For more, see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/SettingTabs.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP wrote in message ups.com... That worked, thanks a lot. Now, are there tabs in Word 2003? Stefan Blom wrote: On the Tools menu, click Options. Click the View tab. Clear the "Windows in taskbar" option. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP wrote in message ups.com... I recently upgraded from Word 97 to Word 2003. I have a feeling this is an easy fix, so here goes. Every time I open a new Word document (i.e. double clicking on an attachment, double clicking on a file in a folder), Word opens a new instance of the application. What I was used to with Word 97 was new documents opening in a new window, in the same instance of Word. I want this functionality back. Also, as an aside, when is Word going to get with the program and have tabs for documents rather than making us deal with the stupid 'Window - Arrange All'? |
