Default How to show 3 Word docs alongside eachother on taskbar?

I am transferring material between three Word documents, and keep switching
between them. I have closed all applications except Word, but still the
documents are displayed as one item on the taskbar - how do I get them to sit
alongside eachother, and is there any way to make them smaller, so that I
could have another application open, and there would still be room on the
task bar to see the three separately? I am using Windows 2003 on XP Service
pack 2.
I've tried cascading and tiling, but it doesn't help - I need to see each
document full screen each time.
Many thanks

Right click a free area of the taskbar properties uncheck 'group similar
taskbar buttons'. Frankly this is one of the better features of Windows XP.
However you display the taskbar you can switch between open Word documents
with ALT+F6.
