Hi all,
In Word 2000 every time I go to open a new document it
opens in a new window. In Excel there is an option to
turn this feature on and off, but I cannot seem to find
one in Word. Is there such an option? If not, is there
any other way to solve this problem? Thanks a lot.

There is not. There is in Word 2002 and 2003.

A person named Romke Soldaat programmed a macro solution to
make it *look* like documents are all in one window. You
should be able to find information on it at word.mvps.org

It is not a 'problem', but a feature - see
