The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Word for Windows, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

You may be unable to switch to a different Windows task by pressing ALT+TAB or CTRL+ESC while you are running one of the Word for Windows Examples And Demos tutorials. (To start the tutorials, choose Examples And Demos from the Help menu and then select a topic in the Examples And Demos window.)

CAUSE

By design, you cannot switch to another task during a Word session that was started by one of the Examples And Demos.

RESOLUTION

If you want to switch to another task, you must exit the Examples And Demos session and then switch.
