Have a View in Word so you to read a doc and edit another Paulo 17.07.2006 16:34:02 It would be really handy to have a view exactly the same as the READING View, but one side is an exisitng document and the other is a NEW document that you can edit. So you have two scroll bars, that way you can scroll and view an existing doc and make notes from it in the NEW doc, without having to swap between different docs. Hope that makes sense - I saw that someone suggested TABS - but this doesnt let you read from one and copy/paste, type from another.

You can scroll the two documents either synchronously or separately. -- Suzanne S.
