Find function, opens under the word doc????

[Bill]

Hi,

I am using office 2000 and windows 2000.

When I click find to enter keywords to search a doc,
the "find" window almost always opens up underneath the
word doc, and not in front like it is supposed to do. This
problem occurs mostly when I open a .doc that is attached
to an outlook email. The find window will then open in
front of the email message but behind the word doc as I
said.

Can someone please help me with this problem???
Thanks a bunch!!!!!
Bill
