Looks like beggars can't be choosers! [smile] must be one of them as I still can't use alt+tab as I used to, even after following all suggestions given. Nevermind, Jackie has found a way round for me and the job is now done. But as she says, it would be nice to know what changed in my settings in Word to alter its behaviour Marie. ----- Original Message ----- From: Eleanor Burke To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ; bcab@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, December 06, 2009 4:04 PM Subject: [access-uk] Microsoft Word 2003 moving between documents Hi I am not sure which list Maria asked this question. I've just tried it out, Maria's way and jackie and George's way. I have no problem doing Alt+Tab and moving between both documents. I ensured that both documents were maxamised as this is my preference in any case and it works just fine. I then went to Window like George suggested and put the documents side by side and I xould still do Alt+tab and move between the documents, of course I could use Ctrl and F6 as an alternative. Was beginning to feel spoilt for choice.
