Up until about one week ago when I opened a Word file it would open in a new
Window that was independent of any other Word files that were open -- I could
therefore have two documents open on two different screens (I uses a two
monitor configuration) at the same time.

Now when I open a second word document it opens in the same window and if I
minimize it it minimizes to a tab in the open window on the bottom left.

How do I get back to the point where I can open a second document in what is
in effect a separate window (active program)?

Any takers?

Thanks

Click Office button | Word Options. In the Advanced category, select "Show
all windows in the Taskbar" (Word 2007).

If you are using Word 2003, the corresponding option is on the View tab of
Tools | Options.
