Is there any way to open multiple instances of the same file in Word 2007?
Currently, if I open a second instance of the file, the focus shifts to the file which is already open.
The "split" functionality isn't of much use either. – since I often need to refer more than 2 documents and even with just documents, it's just too much of scrolling required.
A crude workaround is to rename the file to something like file-1,file-2,file-3 but isn't really practical.
