Introduction:
One of the many benefits of Word is that you can open and work with several
document files at the same time. Each document you open in Word has its own
window. This lesson explains how to open and work with more than one
document. You will also learn some tricks on changing the size of a window,
moving
a window, and arranging a window.

*. Click the Open button on the Standard toolbar, then find and open the
Abe Lincoln file  in you're my documents\my files folder .

*. In this email lesson I have included a second file for you to save into
your "my documents\my files" folder so do this before  you start anything
else.
The file is called "Outlook Express Tutorial".

*. Now we will open up this second file as follows:

Step 1. Open the "file menu, Alt + f".
Step 2. Arrow down to "open" and press the enter key.
Step 3. Press keys, "shift + tab" to reverse jump back into the list of
files and folders then arrow down to "my files".
Step 4. Press enter and then arrow to the "outlook Express tutorial" and
again press "enter keyj" to open it.



*.Each open document appears as an icon on the Windows taskbar. The windows
task bar is like a book shelf or a shelf that you would have in your cabinet
for storing food supplies. Every time you open up a new window, a new item
appears on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen.
So if I have three windows open up on the computer, those three windows
would  be on my taskbar shelf.
 
To switch to a different document:

Step 5. Magnification users; click its icon on the taskbar.

*. Screen reader users; in order to switche between items on the taskbar,
press and hold down "left alt then press the tab key".

Step 6. Magnification users; Click the Abraham Lincoln book on the Windows
taskbar .
The Aberaham story file document appears. The Outlook Express Tutorial is
still open, but you can't see it because it is located behind the  Aberaham
story document window.


Note:Sometimes it can be helpful to view two or more documents onscreen at
the same time.

(Magnification users)
Step 1. Select Window menu, "Arrange All" from the menu .

Both documents Outlook Express Tutorial and  Abe Lincoln story appear in the
program window.
Notice how the title bar of the  Aberaham Lincoln story window is darker
than the title bar of the  Outlook Express Tutorial window? That's because
the Abe Lincoln story   window is active , meaning it's the window
or document you're currently working on. The other window, Outlook Express
Tutorial , is currently inactive.
(Magnification users)
*. Click anywhere in the Lesson 2 Schedule window .

(Screen reader users)
Perform the "alt + tab key movment" to switche between your documents.

The Outlook Express Tutorial window becomes active and the Abe Lincoln story
becomes inactive.
