Cascading/tiling windows - how to stop?

[Jack S.]

When I open multiple windows of Word they don't open exactly on top of each other.
Instead each successive window is slightly offset. How can I have them open exactly
where the last one is? (Right on top of the last window.)

Hi Jack,

You can't, unless your windows are maximized. Windows is set up to work this way, so
that the user can find things...

I suppose you could use VBA code (a macro) to get a certain amount of control over
this. Maybe an AutoOpen macro in your Normal.dot template...
