Default Opening more than one file at a time

Can someone tell me how to change Office XP 2003 so it will open several
files at the same time. It did it before but for some reason now it doesn't.
Thanks
Bruce

What happens when you try to open more than one document?

Do you mean that you can see the different taskbar buttons in your Taskbar
when you open more than one document. If it is so then:

1. Click Tools - Options -
2. on the "View" Tab - make a check mark on "Windows in Taskbar".

Is this what you were talking about? You can also switch between multiple
documents (if not showing in Taskbar) through Windows menu.

Hope this information helps you, let us know!

It is already checked. When I open a folder for instance in My Documents
called Education & it has 10 files in it before I could press Control +
a --right-click--Open & they would all open up in their own window, now
they do not.
