is it possible to stop Word icon f/displayin multi times on task bar

[Annette]

Is it possible to stop the Word icon from showing on the task bar ... if I
open multiple documents in Word 2000, each document shows a W on the task
bar. In excel, I only see one E even though I may have numerous
spreadsheets open.

Hi, Annette,

See this article for an explanation and a third-party utility that can
control this behaviour:

When I open a Word 2000 (or higher) document, it creates a new instance of
Word. How can I stop it from doing this?:

Thanks ... works just like it implies!
