Hi :-)
> One of the FEW things I liked about working with Documentum was that when I opened a Word document while I already had another Word document open, it would open an new instance of Word. This was handy because I could position each instance on a separate monitor, which was handy for working between two documents.

To open multiple instances of Word? It's a setting in Options...in
Word 2007, it's "Show all windows in the Taskbar" (I think).
