[SOLVED] Multiple Instances of Word 2010; Possible to Force Single Instance?

Is it possible to either:
Control Word instancing so that its a single instace application; OR
Adjust the behavior so that if there's already an Word of word, new documents (no matter how they're launched) will open in the existing instance and NOT a new one?
I have a user who tends to open documents en masse/in bulk, highlighting 2-8 at a time and opening them (alternate-click > open OR once selected hitting [Enter]).
When they do this, multiple instances of Word are launched.
Very rarely is there an instance for each document, but its usually close.  For example, if they opened 8 documents there might be 5-7 instances, with several instances showing 2 or more documents in View > Switch Windows.
Multiple instances of Word are a problem for this user because they because a heavy user of Ctrl+F6 / Ctrl+Shift+F6.
And when documents are spread out across multiple instances, this does not work: It does not allow them to cycle through all opened documents; It will only cycle through those that are within that particular instance of Word.
Is this by design?
Is this a change in the way earlier versions of Word behaved?
Is this an 'undocumented feature' [or worse]?
Can this behavior be controlled?

No idea; I'd call it a bug.
This behavior started with Word 2007 or 2010, earlier versions opened all documents within a single instance.
See 1.
No, unfortunately not.

  • Why can't close open multiple docs in Word 2010 in multiple windows while having the option to close them out while keeping Word open?

    End User of mine is wanting to open multiple docs in Word 2010.....first initial glance I thought it was a PICNIC issue. But when addressing it she has it set up to NOT "Show all windows in the taskbar" that option is unchecked so that way she
    can close out docs in Word and not actually close Word. But with unchecking that box it only stacks the docs it won't display them in mutliple windows. This is not the case with Excel as she has the option enabled to "Show all windows in the taskbar"
    but yet the enduser still has the option to close out the spreadsheet and keep Excel open. Is there anyway to keep that second smaller x in Word to close out the docs but yet open in multiple windows like Excel does?
    Please advise!
    Thank you and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi VyDrix13,
    What will happen if you check the option of “Show all windows in the taskbar”?
    If you want to closing document and keep Word open, the alternative is to click File > Close, right there under Open and Save.
    You also can add the Close button to the Quick Access Toolbar.
    If there is anything that I can do for you regarding this issue, feel free to post back.

  • Multiple instances of Mail.app must be possible

    I've seen many questions regarding the possibility of running multiple instances of Mail.app as separate processes. There seems to be much good reason to be able to do so, i.e. separating work and private mail, and very little bad reason to do so (maybe some problems when doing upgrades or backups, but I'm not yet sure of this). It also seems that it should not be so hard to do.
    So far, using some web acquired wisdom, I've done the following:
    1. Duplicate mail.app:
    sudo ditto Mail.app WorkMail.app
    2. Rename the executable:
    mv /Applications/WorkMail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail /Applications/WorkMail.app/Contents/MacOS/WorkMail
    3. Use Property List Editor to set the following values in/Applications/WorkMail.app/Contents/Info.plist (Apple-S to Save changes!):
    Root/CFBundleExecutable=WorkMail
    Root/CFBundleIdentifier=com.apple.workmail
    Root/CFBundleName=WorkMail
    Root/NSServices/0/NSPortName=WorkMail
    Root/NSServices/1/NSPortName=WorkMail
    Root/NSServices/2/NSPortName=WorkMail
    Root/UTExportedTypeDeclarations/0/UTTypeIdentifier=com.apple.workmail.emlx
    Root/UTExportedTypeDeclarations/1/UTTypeIdentifier=com.apple.workmail.emlx.part
    4. Create the following directories:
    mkdir ~/Library/WorkMail Downloads
    mkdir ~/Library/WorkMail
    4. Launch the 'new' application 'WorkMail'.
    5. Create mail accounts using the application's 'wizard'.
    Here is where the first problem is encountered. The new account directories and files are still created at ~/Library/Mail. Navigating to Mail->Preferences->Accounts->[account_name]->Advanced seems to offer the option to change the mail store account directory, but nothing can actually be changed here. So...
    6. Quit WorkMail.
    7. Move newly created account(s) directories (where [newaccountdirectory] is a directory named with the format: [mail_type]-[user]@[domain].[tld]@[pop].[domain].[tld]]) to the correct location:
    sudo mv ~/Library/Mail/[newaccountdirectory] ~/Library/WorkMail/
    8. Use Property List Editor to set the following values in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.workmail.plist (Apple-S to Save changes!):
    /Root/ActiveViewers/0/AttachedMailboxListExpandedItems/[0to_#_ofaccounts]/=~/Library/WorkMail/Mailboxes/...
    /Root/CurrentTransferMailboxPath=~/Library/WorkMail/Mailboxes/...
    /Root/MailAccounts/[0to_#_of_accounts]/AccountPath=~/Library/WorkMail/[new_accountdirectory]
    /Root/MailDownloadsPath=~/Library/WorkMail Downloads
    9. Relaunch WorkMail.
    Everything at this point seems to work okay, **BUT** when I launch Mail while WorkMail is launched, I find that I cannot navigate into any mail folders within Mail. I receive an error message indicating that a necessary directory is locked. It seems that the locking mechanism used by the application may be hard-coded to lock ~/Library/Mail, and both instances of the application continue to take this action when launched, making it impossible for both to work harmoniously at the same time. I will conduct more testing and experimentation, but I am not yet capable of editing the application itself. If anyone can take us this last step, I'm sure there are many who would also like to be able to take advantage of the potential functionality.
    Thanks for any input!

    Hopefully, there is someone with a programming background who
    can take me and other who have posted similar questions through
    the final mile on this...
    Well, I do have a programming background, and I must say that it amazes me that someone might want to do what you did to “solve” a problem that IMO doesn’t exist.
    What exactly is it that you expect to accomplish by running multiple instances of Mail, and for which neither (1) organizing your mail using multiple mail accounts, custom mailboxes, rules, and/or smart mailboxes, nor (2) setting up separate user accounts, are acceptable solutions? I just don’t get it.
    I've seen many questions regarding the possibility of running multiple
    instances of Mail.app as separate processes.
    I haven’t. Could you please provide a link for such a question, preferably one asked by someone who knew how Mail and Mac OS X work, i.e. a link for a case where there really was such a need?
    There seems to be much good reason to be able to do so
    I know of no such reasons, neither good nor bad.
    i.e. separating work and private mail
    I don’t see how that’s a reason to want to run multiple instances of Mail. Could you please elaborate?
    Maybe if you tell us what exactly is the problem that you’re trying to solve, instead of focusing on a convoluted “solution” that doesn’t work, we could propose a solution that does...
    and very little bad reason to do so
    Well, if the fact that it’s so convoluted and doesn’t even work aren’t bad enough reasons, I don’t know what it is...
    It also seems that it should not be so hard to do.
    I wonder what makes you think so. It does certainly seem hard to me, so hard that I don’t even think it can be done without breaking something, if at all...

  • Multiple instances of Word launching when opening files from Explorer window

    I am seeing an odd behavior with Word 2010 (32 bit) that I could not replicate in earlier versions of Word.
    Here are the steps:
    Note: When performing these steps, I am on a 32 bit Windows 7 machine. Word is not running yet, and the Task Manager dialog is open with the processes sorted in reverse alpha order so that WinWord.exe will appear at the top.
    1. Go to a folder containing a set of word documents or templates (all are in either .docx or .dotx format) in Windows Explorer.
    2. Select a group of files (I am selecting 4 .docx files in my tests).
    3. Right-click and select Open.
    4. Four instances of WINWORD.EXE appear in the Task Manager (one of them then goes away, leaving only three instances running, but I think that's beside the point).
    Could someone shed light on why this is happening with Word 2010 and if there's anything that can be done to make it "behave" and open only one instance? 
    PS - The templates contain no code, and no add-ins are loaded at the time that I perform these steps. Also, all Word and Office updates have been installed on the machine.
    Thanks

    Koero, did you try the registry hack proposed in this forum?
    I started getting multiple instances of Word 2010 two days ago in Windows 7 on my company PC after a reboot following a Windows updates pushed out by the IT department.
    This also happened immediately after a Windows update on May
    27, 2014, but somehow I was able to stop that behavior then.  That fix happened after I restored a old copy of Normal.dotm but evidently that
    was not the solution because restoring that copy did not fix the problem today.
    The fix suggested by
    peebs7384 in this forum on April 19, 2012 of changing the "Lay
    out this document" setting did not work on my PC.
    One support person who has both the 2010 and 2013 versions indicated that he also gets multiple instances with 2010 but not with 2013.
    I plan to ask my IT department to attempt a fix tomorrow and will suggest that they try registry hack posted in this forum by
    kit_jj on Aug 16, 2012 (based on Pierre's posting) (thanks
    kit_jj and Pierre).
    By the way,
    kit_jj's posting has only 1 vote & I would had hoped to see more votes.  Now that I look more closely I see that this solution was "Proposed
    as answer by kit_jj" himself.  At least others have posted comments that indicate that fixes posted by
    kit_jj & Pierre have worked (at least partially).
    Any ideas as to why this started happening again?

  • Need Multiple Instance of MDI Form, Possible ?

    Hi,
    I have a button in outlook,  that when clicked runs an Winforms application as addin.  The app has main MDI window and uses lots of .xsd files (Typed Datasets) for database activity.
    I have a situation where we want to shift all 2014 data into and as OLD database and only 2015 onwards records with be in current database.  But we also want users to view old data.  
    The immediate thought with minimum changes is that if we can create two instance of MDI Window (Running separately from each other in process ) then both can have different connection strings  and program will run as usual getting data
    from respective database.  
    Note: Connection strings are defined in and as global::AppName.Properties.Settings.Default.cnn and same is used everywhere in the code including .xsd files (Typed Datasets)
    Any Guidance or Better Thoughts to achieve the task.
    Regards

    Thanks Phill for the response.
    But in both of the techniques I will have to modify the code (SQL) at many places and do round of testing.
    Its a 4yr old code and not everything is in stored procedures, some are dynamic sql coming from code etc etc.
    Another factor which I forgot to mention was that we want to Re-numbering/Restart of all AutoIncrement Fields.
    This might be in conflict with either of your suggestions.
    if it was just WinForms application, I think it would be easy to run multiple instance.  but in my case its an outlook addin. My view is somehow if it is possible to manipulate and spawn two instance running as different process, that it would be awesome.   
    Any thoughts ?
    Regards
    Hello,
    a. >>But in both of the techniques I will have to modify the code (SQL) at many places and do round of testing.
    b. >>Its a 4yr old code and not everything is in stored procedures, some are dynamic sql coming from code etc etc. 
    c. >>Another factor which I forgot to mention was that we want to Re-numbering/Restart of all AutoIncrement Fields.
    From these words above, it seems that you didn't want to edit the current form, and want to copy that and edit it to display the old data, and do some other modifications, right？
    We could create another form and copy all controls and code from the main form, and edit them to display the old data by changing the connection string, but it still needs us modify the code at many places.
    We could create another instance of the main form, and get that displayed, but it will still display the same data unless we changing the connection string and query.
    To sum up, no matter which way we selected, it still needs us to edit the code include query and connections strings at many places.
    >>if it was just WinForms application, I think it would be easy to run multiple instance.  but in my case its an outlook addin. My view is somehow if it is possible to manipulate and spawn two instance running as different process, that it would
    be awesome.   
    The key issue is that where did you display these data, you want to display them inside the form, right?
    Inside the button click event of that add-in, you could show multiple window forms, one for old data, the other for 2015 data, they will not disturb each other.

    The only observations are that the backup drive is deemed too small and the quite long list of diagnostic reports dated between  Jan 18, 2015 (which I believe is the day I upgraded to Yosemite) & today the latest Yosemite update was installed on Jan 28, 2015
    Any further assistance will be appreciated

  • Multiple instances of Crystal Reports Viewer possible in WPF?

    Hi, I've dragged and dropped three Crystal Reports Viewer controls on my WPF application. The goal is to be able to select up to 3 reports from a listbox and click run to generate the reports simultaneously. When I select just one report, it works fine. However when I select multiple reports it throws errors (object not found, etc). It seems there is a problem with multiple threads. Is it possible to have multiple instances of the Crystal Report Viewer display reports simultaneously? I am using version 13.0.9.1312 from the link below along with VS2013 C# WPF.
    SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
    Thanks,
    Syed

    I was able to quickly cobble together a two viewer app that looks like this:
    The code is like this:
    Public Sub New()
            ' This call is required by the designer.
            InitializeComponent()
            ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.
            Dim crReportDocument As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
            crReportDocument.Load("C:\tests\formulas.rpt")
            CrystalReportsViewer1.ViewerCore.ReportSource = crReportDocument
            Dim crReportDocument2 As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
            crReportDocument2.Load("C:\tests\report1.rpt")
            CrystalReportsViewer2.ViewerCore.ReportSource = crReportDocument2
        End Sub
    For more details see the document WPF Project Using the Crystal Reports WPF Viewer in 8 Easy Steps
    Now a couple of things to keep in mind;
    1) The report engine is based on 3 Concurrent Processor License (CPL) model. Meaning you can process at most three reports at the same time. In my test, doing the above code for four reports worked, but the reports are very, very simple - and with saved data. What a "real" world reports will do, I am not sure. I do know that in a web app, the reports are queued up until one report is done and thus a CPL is freed up. You will also need to keep in mind any database connection limits, etc.
    2) There is also a Print Job limit. This by default is set to 75. In a nutshell, almost anything done with a report is a Print Job. E.g.; paging, zooming, drilling, searching, etc., etc. In addition subreports are considered to be Print Jobs. Thus a report with one subreport in a detail section that returns a thousand rows of data and therefore running 1000 subreports will error out.

  • Batch create Multiple files in Acrobat X and X1 cannot convert Word 2010 with graphics

    I work for an exams board where hundreds of exam papers are produced. Once approved, these exams are converted to PDF and sent to print.  Using the Batch Create Multiple Files option is therefore essential to getting these papers print ready on time.  We have found that using this function to convert multiple Word 2010 files with graphics will not render it properly.  It deconstructs the graphics which loses the integrity of the exam paper. 
    I have trialled the same group of files on Acrobat X1 with the same result.
    Have other Acrobat Pro Users experienced the same problem?  Is there a fix? 

    I have uploaded the files and shared them.  These are the links

  • Opening Files in Multiple Instances of Excel 2010

    I've been using multiple instances of Excel 2003 using two monitors for a long time using Windows XP.  I used to do this by opening Excel and opening Excel again from the Start menu and opening files through windows explorer and controlling which instance
    of Excel it would open because it opens based on the recent active Excel instance. For example, I open Excel program instance #1 and then I open Excel program instance #2.  If I click on the Excel program 1 and then go to windows explorer and open
    a file, it will open on Excel program instance #1.  If I click on instance #2 then open a file, it will open on instance #2. 
    However, now I have Windows 7 Pro with Excel 2010.  At first, it would ALWAYS open the file in the first instance of Excel whenever I opened a file from windows explorer.  I found some registry edits that will open a file in a new instance of Excel
    EVERY time. I don't really like either solution.  I want to control the number of Excel instances and determine which instance I want the file to open.  I know I can do this via the Open/File menu in Excel but it's a much more onerous
    way.  I would like to know if there is a way I can make Excel 2010 and Win7 behave the way it did before with Excel 2003 and WinXP.

    Hmm, it seems it´s really hard to undestand, what our problem is all about.
    Even the solution
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2636670 isn´t the right answer.
    Ok, i´ll try again:
    - i have 2 Excel-Instances running (can see it with TaskMgr) and i don´t want any
    more Excel-Instances starting
    - for several reasons (data-comparison side-by-side on 2 monitors, etc.), i´d like to control, in which instance
      double-clicked XLS-Documents from Mails, Web-Downloads or (most wanted!) PlSql-Developers
      "Export to Excel"-function should open
    - with Office2003 / WinXP it was very simple: 
    just activate the desired Excel instance before doing
      the double-click or calling the export-function ... the XLS-Document opens exactly in a new window
      of the previously activated Excel-instance
    So it´s not about opening always in new Excel-Instances, therefore all .bat-Solutions or Registry-
    modifications i´ve seen so far wont help. Also the mouse-drag/drop will not work for Web-Downloads
    or Database-Exports, even sometimes not for XLS in Outlook-Mails.
    Yes, i agree:  Win 7 / Office 2010 is a massive downgrade for all users, that need informations on the
    screen (instead of large, fancy icons), that want fast and efficient functionality (instead of clicking around
    through "ribbons" and waiting more than twice a time for same operations, that run in XP/Office2003 simply great)
    After digging the web, experimenting with registry-hacks, etc., i didn´t find any REAL solution.
    That´s why i feel, all those of you (incl. me), that
    have used their machines like described above, have lost.
    Resignated, i wish
    i could switch back to XP/Office2003

  • Is it possible to integrate multiple instances with single OAM (Oracle Acce

    Hi All,
    Please could anyone clarify,is it possible to integrate multiple instance with single OAM(Oracle Access Manager).
    We have two instance in development environment, Among them one is already integrated with OAM 11g,Now we want to integrate the second one with OAM 11g. For this already configured OAM is enough or we need to configure the another OAM separately.

  • How to use multiple instances of the same dll ?

    Hi,
    I'd like to use multiple instances of a jni dll . I have created
    different threads, in each thread, I have called System.loadLibrary(..),
    and I would like each thread to access a different instance of this
    library.
    Unfortunately, the loadLibrary function is effective only once so I
    can not find the way to do this.
    Can anyone help me on this ?
    Thanks.
    Francois.

    Hi, :)
    and I would like each thread to access a different
    instance of this library.In Win32, this is outright impossible. A DLL will only exist once in a process space.
    In Unix, or at least in Solaris, I think this is also not possible, as libraries are loaded by the dynamic linker, and it keeps tabs of which modules have already been loaded into the process space.
    I'm assuming your problem is that your native library has non-reentrant code.
    If so, there are two approaches you can take to this:
    1) If you have access to the source code for the native library, change it so that it is reentrant.
    2) If you do not, change your Java code so that access to the native code is made from whithin synchronize blocks.
    If your problem is of a different nature, I'll second the words of the previous poster and ask you what it is...
    Cheers,
    J.

  • Multiple instances of mplayer with jack

    "_R_ealtime software mixing ?!?! wtf thats awesome--actually im not a studio junkie, i just need sound on one of them"
    i understand that the casual nature of my involvement with jackd suggests a less-than-appropriate level of respect and diligence for what this almighty app is capable of serving up.  i just need to level audio volume on multiple instances of mplayer with software mixing (my sound card is cheap).
    all my jackd configs are vanilla from the wiki as stated below.  if anyone has another solution or a request for information in regard to this solution please reply.  as always, thanks in advance
    --here is some err... background
    i have a some files that i would like to run with mplayer and a video file [with its own audio] that i would like to run concurrently.  it should be possible to use jackd to let one instance of mplayer show video with no sound while permitting the audio from the other instance to play at arbitrary volume.  without jack, i cannot control sound independantly since both instances seem to use the same device (PCM0).  furthermore i have found that starting multiple instances of mplayer leads to weird artifacts which persist after all running instances of mplayer concurrent with artifact appearance have been closed. 
    so i installed jack-audio-connection-kit following the wiki verbatim.  then i installed qjackctl.  starting jackd as root and qjackctl with sudo allowed me to see the first instance of mplayer but not the second.
    what is the difference between running mplayer through alsa and running mplayer through jack through alsa (not sure if the objects are accurately laid out there but whatever)?  the wiki basically provides an out of the box solution for software mixing a bunch of inputs (i have friends who do sound professionally though not with linux and im envisioning way more complicated stuff than my humble pair of mplayers

    If you run one file with '-ao null' and the other one with '-vo null' you can manipulate them independently, there's no sound mixing involved, it just allows you "to add visuals to an audio feed spontaneously". They can both be run with 'af scaletempo' to speed up / slow down etc.
    Hmm, wonder if that's what the OP was looking for?

  • Multiple instances of VBAI

    I know that we can now acquire from multiple cameras in VBAI (thanks!).  However, I feel that doing so leads to very complex inspection sequences.  It does not look like VBAI has fully embraced parallelism for things other than FTP transfer.  What do I do if I have 5 GigE cameras that each must be triggered, and where it is possible that two could be triggered at the same time?  Can I run multiple instances of VBAI on a single PC (hey, it's multicore)?  I predict that the current answer is to just use LabVIEW, but VBAI is mostly LabVIEW.... right?
    I would like to maintain only the simple, single-camera, inspections on the PC.  Running multiple VBAI instances would allow me to dedicate an instance to each camera without worrying about what is going on wth the other 4 (or more).
    No, I haven't tried to do this yet.  Currently, I am out of town and away from my vision lab.  I figured that if this is possible, it is worth mentioning to the public, and if it is not then it is worth mentioning to R&D.  The system I am picturing would be a future version of a system we just completed where we had 4 NI Smart Cameras and one GigE camera.  The question came up about what to do if all 5 cameras were GigE.  Don't worry, we still love the SmartCams!

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    FYI, feedback to Marketing / Product Development from an industrial user of several brands of vision systems...
    I agree that it would be very useful to be able to run multiple instances of the VBAI application!   Since each one would run in it's own process space, you could:
    - Shut down individual inspections for program adjustments without affecting others that may be in the same program on different cameras.
    - Make the programs simpler and easier to understand without as much branching logic.
    - Make the NI software a better value, by allowing people to use 1 piece of generic hardware instead of multiple dedicated processors. (PC, CVS, SmartCamera, etc)  This would make the NI software a more attractive choice for applications where we currently buy lower cost Banner, DVT, or Cognex units or if more power is needed-- an easier to maintain Keyence unit.
    Currently IMO, because of the difficulties and expense involved with licensing, software version dependencies, and working with the NI hardware in general, I only consider NI where the additional functionality/flexibility is required.  I have had good luck with PC-based applications of VBAI.  If I could use an off-the-shelf industrial PC and run inspections in parallel-- making it easier to maintain and lowering the average cost per inspection, I probably would reconsider.
    Thanks,
    Mike
