Default don't "exit" when "close" last document

"rgb" wrote in message
...
when "close" last document, Word automatically "exits." Can I set Word to
not
close the program, though I have closed all documents? Thank you.


If you're talking Word 2007, go to Office (round button) | Word Options |
Advanced, and uncheck "show all windows in taskbar." (It's under the Display
section.)

You may find that you dislike not being able to select documents from the
taskbar and having to use the View ribbon instead, though.
