Default Quickly Changing Back and Forth Among Open Word Documents

How do you quickly change back and forth between other Word documents
that you've opened? For example, in MS Excel, I use [Control-Tab] to
navigate among several different Excel files that I may have open.

Any quick key stroke rather than going to Window and selecting the
document you want? I know [Alt-Tab] but it only transfers between two
(not all) documents that are open. Any quick commands? Thanks.

Default Quickly Changing Back and Forth Among Open Word Documents

You can use Alt+Tab to switch between any open windows: If you press Alt+Tab
and keep the Alt key depressed, you'll see a small window with all
applications/documents that you are running. Use the Tab key to activate the
one you want.

Alternatively, you can click the icon on the taskbar (assuming that you have
Word 2000 or later).

That's definitely a better idea than mine. :-)
