EditCopyasPicture Shortcut
I'm a shortcut kind of gal. I was looking through the "Customize Keyboard" dialog box to see if there were any I'd like to add to my very long list. EditCopyasPicture looked exciting so I created a shortcut for it. While trying out my newfound shortcut, I pasted the copied paragraphs as a Microsoft Word Document Object. The result was as expected. Then I thought I'd see what happens...

I don't know if Word 2007 is made to work this way, or if there's an easy way to configure it so it doesn't do this, but I can't seem to figure it out. Whenever I have a doc(s) already opened and minimized on my taskbar, if I open a new Word doc, the previously minimized doc will maximize before the new doc opens over top of it. It makes a real mess when I've got multiple docs I'm w...
