How do i open files all in the same program? eg i opened 7 word documents and
Word opened a separate window for each instead of just opening once, with the 7 docs within it. Excel seems to be the same. How can I correct this? Thankyou. c |

Do the same in Excel HTH -- Interim Systems and Management Accounting Gordon Burgess-Parker Director www.gbpcomputing.co.uk |

Help with Word is available from news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...ic.office.misc. I do not think that this option is missing on your computer, I would simply check again. If you cannot find it, you may want to reinstall Word to make sure that your configuration is ok. -- (tm) |

it's a brand new PC. it's Word 2000 though - someone just told me that makes
a difference? even if i go to print preview it opens in a new window. is this just a "feature" of windows 2000? i suppose i'll have to get used to it if it is! thanks, C "Thorsten Matzner" wrote: "cazfarrington" wrote: Thanks - I Can Do this in Excel all right.... but the "windows in taskbar" option doesn't appear to be in Word... ??????

Post to the mentioned group. I do not use Word 2000, it may be that this option is hidden somewhere else or not available in this version. -- (tm) |
