Until yesterday, Alt-Tab moved me from one window to another. Now
suddenly it doesn't do anything; or it manifests a list of hotkeys
(ie: over the SAVE icon appears a picture of the 1 key; and if I push
the 1 key, the document will save); or it causes the tabs ("Document
1," "Document 2," etcetera) on the blue bar at the bottom of the
screen to flash orange distress signals (in which case, a few more
presses of Alt-Tab will eventually get me from one window to the
next.

I'm running Microsoft Office Word 2007.

Not only does Alt-Tab no longer reliably get me from one window to the
next, but neither does clicking on the tabs on the blue bar at the
bottom of the screen. I get the same flashing orange distress
signals. A few more frustrating clicks will usually complete the
move to the selected window, but often that happens after minimizing
the window before it restores the window and brings it to the
front.

What I'm reduced to is cascading the windows, having them overlap so I
can get from one to the next by clicking on the part that sticks
out.

Can anybody help?
