A Word/Office programming NG would be more relevant to your question.

Hi Charles,

Starting with Word 2000, Word opens a new window for each document you open.
There's nothing you can do to change this in Word 2000.

If you set the document you're opening to an object variable, then you can
always get back to it, no matter how many windows or documents are opened.
Avoid the use of "ActiveDocument". Example:

Dim mydoc as Word.Document

Set mydoc = wdObj.Documents.Open(szDocName)
mydoc.SaveAs szNewName
