What version of Word are you using? If Word 2007 then all you can do
is right-click the Close command under the Microsoft Office Button and
add it to your QAT and use it instead of the X to close.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.

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