Default How do you wrap text within the window?

I've tried using the print layout view and the draft view, but am still
unable to get the text to wrap within the window. I want to have multiple
small windows open, but have the ability to see all the text on the screen,
rather than having to scroll to the side. Instead, I could just scroll down
as I read along. Is this possible?

In Word 2003, Tools Options View Wrap text within window.

In Word 2007, Office button Word Options Advanced Show document content
Show text wrapped within the document window.

In either version, this setting is ignored in Print Layout view but works in all
the other views.
