Moving and Resizing Document Windows

Every Office program and document opens inside a window, which contains a title bar, Ribbon, and work area to create and edit your data. Most often, you’ll probably fill the entire screen with one window. But when you want to move or copy information between programs or documents or use two monitors, it’s easier to display several windows at once, where one document appears in one window (New!). You can arrange two or more windows on the screen at the same time. However, you must make the window active to work in it. You can also click the document buttons on the taskbar to switch between open documents.
