MS word split viewing?

[Lonyo]

I can set up Word 2000 to view parts of a document in 2 different panes, one above, one below, is there any way to make it so they are side by side, rather than one on top of the other?

I know that in Excel that if you click just above or below the side scroll area (above/below the two arrows respectively) you can split the pane vertically. I don't know about in Word, and I can't test it as I don't have MS Office on my home computer.

Damn, looks like it might be possible. I can work it on Excel, but Word doesn't have the same option on the side scroll bar
Oh well, might have to struggle on with vertical split.

did you try MS Word Help? seriously, i've been able to find almost any question i've had from MS Office's help files.

Yeah, I tried it, but it only gives how to do vertical split, so it seems there is no horizontal split

1. Open document.
2. Click Window--New Window
3. Ctrl+left-click second window in taskbar.
4. Right-click one of the windows in the taskbar, choose "Tile Vertically"

All that does is make 2 instances of the same document. I'm pretty sure that any editing you do in one of the documents will not appear in the other.

Incorrect.
