How to close just one document without closing the application-Wor
If I have multiple Word 2003 documents open, every time I close just one of
them, wanting to keep the rest open, the entire application closes and of course so do all the open documents. What am I missing here. And there is no "X" on the individual document [or at least I'm not seeing it.] Not a horrible thing, but it sure can be frustrating and time consuming. Thanks, Tom |

How to close just one document without closing the application-Wor
I wonder if the X is there, but you're not seeing it. It can take two forms,
and in the 2nd case (below), it's easy to think it's there for a different reason: 1. If "Windows in Taskbar" is turned off (Tools - Options - View tab), there will be minimize, restore/maximize, and close buttons for the current document. They will be below the minimize, restore/maximize, and close buttons for Word. 2. If "Windows in Taskbar" is turned on, there will be only a close X in the upper right corner, [usually] just to ther right of "Type a question for help" and a little to the right and below of the current window's own X. With this setting, the window itself has minimize, restore/maximize buttons, but the individual document window does not. In addition, you can close the current document by pressing Ctrl+W or Ctrl+F4. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Tom in CA" Tom in wrote in message ...
