View+multiple+documents+at+once

 How to keep the instructions on the screen as well as the document you're editing...
 * If both documents are Word documents - Arrange two documents on the screen at once ** (e.g., instructions and project document): Click the View menu, then Arrange All. After that, you may want to turn on/off the Synchronize Scrolling button.
 * If one document is a Word document with instructions and the other a different program** - Right click the task bar (bar at the bottom of the screen when you are looking at your desktop), and choose to **tile** documents.
 * Get more screen space for your documents.** Minimize the ribbon - use the "Customize Quick Access Toolbar" menu (down arrow symbol, upper left, near the disk icon for saving your work). Then, when you want to see the ribbon again, just click the section name, e.g., Home, Insert, Page Layout... etc..
