Hi Severin, > When going to either Word or Excel or Power Point, by default a new blank > document opens. I find this most annoying
Do you remember version 5 of Microsoft Word for Mac, which was brilliant for its day? And then how Microsoft had its Mac developers lobotomised between version 5 and 6, so 6 was a port of the DOS version of Word (I exaggerate how bad it was, but nevertheless...). One of the regressions in Word 6 was that a blank document would appear and then, unlike Word 5, you HAD to close it before you opened another document, otherwise it would stay there forever. Fortunately this was addressed in future versions of Word, and now if you open a document while the initial blank Document1 document is on screen, the Document1 document disappears automatically. So, you don't have to close it yourself...it gets replaced when Word realises it's unwanted.
