More than 1 Doc = more than 1 Window?
Hi there,
MS Office 2003 (11.6359.6360) SP1 I am totally new to MS Word and learning all the way. Is it so that for every document which I open, a new instance of Word has to be opened? Can I set Word that it only opens one time but with different documents to be open. I don't want Word as such to open for every document I have opened. I hope my question makes sence to you. Regards, Deon |

It is rare that a new instance of Word is opened. Rather, a separate window
on the task pane is opened.

I made the change as per suggestion. I thought it opened up a new instance of Word everytime you open a new document. Regards, Deon |

That is what it looks like in default mode.
It is possible to open a new instance of word deliberately using vb or vba. It is also possible to open a new instance of Word by accident by trying to open a document or Word from the desktop while Word is in the middle of loading. Didn't sound like what you were experiencing, though. Glad to have been of help. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
