MS Office and Alt-Tab?

S

Hi all - is there any way to set things up so that each office app only
shows up once when alt-tabbing through apps? Office used to do this,
but I think starting with 2000, and certainly in 2003, by default each
Office app shows every open document, query, object or other internal
window when alt-tabbing - this is highly annoying and the Office
programs are the only programs I am aware of that behave this way by
exposing their internal Windows to the alt-tab interface. I.E. If I
have 10 word documents open, I don't want Word showing up 10 times when
I hit alt-tab - once is fine. Similarly, I don't need every open query
or report to show up from Access, all from the same database, when I
hit alt-tab, once is fine. Can anyone help me set things up so that
this is what happens?

Thanks in advance.

In Word, In Tools=>Options turn off the
[x] Windows in Taskbar setting.
