 Opening new document without a new window opening

Hi

I'm using MS Word 2002 on XP Pro and every time I create or open a new
document it opens a second instance of Word.

How do you open a new document so that it does NOT open a second instance of
Word. I'd like to keep all the document running within one program as it
used to in older versions.

I've browsed through the Tools/Options menu but couldn't find anywhere to
switch it off.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi, Paul,

Tools | Options | General, uncheck "Windows in Taskbar".
