Closing Files Automatically
You can have multiple files of all types open in the interface at the same time. By default, when you open a new file, other documents that are already open remain open. However, you can change this behavior so that files already open in the interface are automatically closed when you open a new document.
How to close files automatically
-
Select Tools>Options.
The Options dialog opens.
-
Click in the field labeled Close others when opening new document. Then select one of the options.
- Close others This option automatically closes all other open documents.
- Close others with no changes This option automatically closes all other open documents that do not have unsaved changes. If you have files open where changes have been made but not saved, those files will remain open until you save and close them.
- Close others with same extension This option automatically closes all other open documents that share the same file extension.
- Close others with same extension and no changes This option is the same as the previous option, except that files with unsaved changes will not automatically be closed. Those files remain open until you save and close them.
- Click OK.
