How do I start Word without a new document?

Toni in Auburn

I start Word many times a day, usually to open a already prepared document.
Each time Word comes up with a blank new document. I would like it to come
up with no document. I have Word 2000.

You need to use the /n switch.

If you use the Create Shortcut wizard, browse to winword.exe (for Word 2003
this would normally be in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.EXE") and then append /n in the text box, then you
create a shortcut which opens Word without creating a blank document.

Hope this helps,
Dermot
