Default Customizing Word97 - Get rid of "Microsoft Word - " on the Taskabar

I'm going to night school to get a better degree and working on a
paper. I've decided to aid my work by using my old computer to
simulate having dual monitors. This leaves me with using good old
Word97 to write the paper.

Is there any way that I can shorten what is written on the taskbar so
I can easily identify which document I have open is which segment and
which is the Works Cited page via filenames? They all show up as
"Microsoft ..." at the moment. I'd like to either change it so the
filename is first, or eliminate the string that says "Microsoft Word"
altogether. If it can't be eliminated, change it to a single space.
I'd rather not take up half my screen with the taskbar as I need the
screen for editing. The icon with the "W" is sufficent for me to
identify that it is Word, I don't need the text "Microsoft Word -
filename", I just need the "W" and the filename.

I'm using Office97 and Windows 98SE. I apologize if this is the wrong
newsgroup, but none of the trees I followed on Google Groups seemed
appropriate.
