"Document1" instead of the file name. Can anyone help me with this issue for Office 2003. Detailed Problem If you open a document called "request form.doc" , the title of the window should be "request form". But my Word window title is changing to "Document1" |

I suspect that you are opening these documents from Windows Explorer instead
of Word and that the file associations have been damaged so that the default action for documents is New instead of Open. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/ReRegisterWord.htm for instructions on reregistering Word to reset the file associations. If this is not the answer, then you may have a virus that is causing Word to save all files as templates instead of documents. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Suzanne,
I tried to fix it from the explorer folder options , it didn't work. Then I tried your winword /r command to register the word. Now the title shows the file name. "Suzanne S.

Suzanne
Now I have a new problem , which I never had in Office 2000 , or word 95 / 97... I open a first document a.doc by double clicking the file , then minimize the window. After that I open a second document b.doc by double clicking the file. The first word document window gets restored when the second document gets opened. This is a strange behaviour that I never saw. Do you know the solution ? Really appreciates your help. "gbp" wrote: Thanks Suzanne, I tried to fix it from the explorer folder options , it didn't work.

Those older versions of Word did not have the Windows in the taskbar
facility of Word 2002/3, so that (normal) behaviour couldn't occur. To make Word behave like the older versions - tools options view uncheck Windows in taskbar. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org gbp wrote: Suzanne Now I have a new problem , which I never had in Office 2000 , or word 95 / 97...

window title file name
If I uncheck "windows in the taskbar" all the windows open in one single
window. I would like to keep that option. I am refering to Office 2000. Where you open each word file in a separate window and minimize it. In Office 2003 when I open a document the following is happening 1.it restores a minimized word document 2.then invokes a new word window 3.the document is openend in the new word window. 4. Now I have two word documents that are visible on the desktop. I wanted only the second one to be on my screen. Is there a work around "Graham Mayor" wrote: Those older versions of Word did not have the Windows in the taskbar facility of Word 2002/3, so that (normal) behaviour couldn't occur.
