Default I'd love sheet tabs like at the bottom of Excel

You can set whether the task bar groups similar icons or not by right
clicking the task bar and selecting properties, however, the ability to
group icons by applications was one of the best innovations introduced with
Windows XP. Two clicks instead of one is not going to shorten your life!

I agree about the tabs--I was just thinking that myself recently.
When you have more than 4 tabs it turns into a group, and then you
can't switch between documents easily. Tabs would be a great idea!

Hi,
I'm writing a book and I'd love to have sheet tabs like in the
bottom of Excel. Imagine the benefits: I could have separate tabs
for:
- New Topic Sentences
- New Chapters
- Polished Chapters
- Out Edits
- Quotes
- Reminders
- Etc.
Wouldn't it be wonderful? Then Word Count would be accurate for my
Polished Chapters, and I'd have a word count for new chapters. There
would be many other benefits.
Is there similar functionality in Word 2007? I guess you can
hyperlink to separate documents, but then you've got to be careful
to keep documents together, and it's not as good. And there's Master
Documents which I don't trust, and isn't as good.
