Alt + Tab key combination
In Word, I was able to open multiple documents, then hold down the "ALT" key and "TAB" through the documents. It was quick and easy. In Atlantis, I can't seem to be able to do this. However, I can go to the bottom of the Atlantis screen and click on a document's tab. That's all fine and well, but I'd really rather use my old ALT + TAB key combination. Is there any way to make this happen? Thanks so much.
Re: displaying documents
Greetings--
In Atlantis, the shortcut is "Ctrl+Tab", and back with "Ctrl+Shift+Tab".
Cheers

Strictly speaking, Alt+Tab is not a MS Word's hot key. Alt+Tab is used for switching between Windows tasks which have a button on the Windows Taskbar. Unlike Atlantis, MS Word creates a separate Taskbar button for each open document. This is why you can use Alt+Tab for switching between documents in MS Word.
In Atlantis you can also use the Ctrl+F6 hot key. In addition, you can switch to the desired document window by pressing Alt+<document's ordinary number> (Alt+1, Alt+2, ..., Alt+9) For example, you could press Alt+3 to switch to the third document which is currently open in Atlantis.
Alt+0 shows a list of all open documents. It can be also used to switch between documents.

Thanks
Thanks guys. I'm so used to using the Alt + Tab key combination, that it's just natural for me. I do realize however, that it's a MS convention, not especially Word. The Ctrl + Tab key combo is working fine for me now.
