Hi Diana-

This is an IE seeting, not handled by Word.

In IE, go to ToolsInternet Options--Advanced locate and remove the check
for 'Reuse windows for launching shortcuts' in the settings under 'Browsing'.
Keep in mind that this is a universal browser setting, so every link to a
different site will open in a new window.

Regards |:)

If you go into the Help option in Word and click on the internet options it
always opens an existing window in Internet Explorer. I would like to it to
open in a new window, not an existing window.
