We must have forgotten to update those files?

@Costas, it does not appear that the chm file reflects the content of the online help file.

Just the chm helpfile as it does not show the panel layout like the online version does. http://www.theword.net/manual/views.htm

Hi Costas;
I have to agree, having a minimize button on a floating window would be nice. after using theWord now for about a month, I can see how beneficial that would be. as sometimes I have multiple windows open, and have to drag them to the side.

Also one more thing, on a "Module Set" I find myself constantly switching between "Tabs in multiple rows" so you can see all of the tabs. I find it easer sometimes to navigate that way, but then when all the tabs are open it takes up the whole window! so I have to go into options to switch "Tabs in multiple rows" to off.
So it would be nice to have a button, or just a keyboard shortcut so you could switch back and forth quickly. Just a suggestion.

Thank you, and god bless.
Chet

Thank you Chet for both suggestions. I am still considering for the minimize button.
About the 'Tabs in multiple rows': unless i add a function to somehow customize the toolbars, I don't think i will decide to put a button out there

Even just a keyboard shortcut would be great. but if not I do understand, your the programmer, which I know nothing about.
One thing I do know is that your a genius! I love this program.
