I have two docs open in Word 2003. I look under the file menu to close one
document (and want to leave the other one open). "Close" is no longer an
option. "Exit" is but that closes all the Word windows.

I know that I can use my mouse to click on the X in each individual window -
but I like to be keyboard functional.

Thanks

Microsoft haven't removed this; assuming you are looking at the full menu
(i.e. it doesn't have the double chevron at the bottom), you must have
accidentally deleted it.

You can reset the menu via Tools Customize Toolbars (tab). Scroll down
the list and select "Menu Bar", then press Reset. This will reset the whole
menu. If you don't want to lose any other customization, then you can instead
do ..

Tools Customize Commands (tab). File will be selected by default in the
categories list on the left, so scroll down the list of commands on the
right to find "Close", then click and drag it. As you hover over File on the
Menu, the File menu will expand and you can drop "Close" where you want it.

However as you say you like the keyboard, why not use Ctrl+F4 to close the
active document?

Enjoy,
Tony
