Does this exist?

I was wondering if there is an add on to office 2007 or anything really, that would enable a tabbing feature such as in FF or IE. It's seems like a feature like that would be soooo convenient, at times I have multiple word docs open along with other programs and it would be nice to not have them all clutter up the task bar. Instead just take up one space on the task bar and have the rest tabbed inside word, excel, etc.

Does this exist??

 

cant you just make the taskbar group similar icons? (by right clicking taskbar, properties, checking group similar icons?)

 

I agree that a tabbed Office interface would be wonderful. The excellent text editor I use all day every day at work (WinEDT) lets me keep a bunch of programs and (text) output files open and tabbed and it's much more productive than having separate windows/sessions/etc. to deal with.

 

I feel that, that feature is really clumsy and not productive, it takes me longer to find what I am looking for when the task bar groups my items. I'd rather just have 15 open that way I can at least get to them quickly.

 

maybe it will be easier for you if you try alt+tab. continue holding alt to keep the thumbnails of all the folders up. then use your mouse to click on which window of msword you want.

 

onenote has this feature but you can't save .doc's only in onenote format.

 

This is a good idea to submit to microsoft.

 

Wow...Believe me it was only yesterday I thought of this....Gr8 minds think alike

It would be nice to have something like flipping through multiple worksheets in MS Excel....!!

 

Exactly!

I did some Google searching but, alas no luck, I wonder why Microsoft has not implemented something like this......
