how do I stop the task pane showing when I open a Word document

Hi - I just upgraded to Office 2003 and now I keep getting the Getting
Started task pane every time I (a) start Word or (b) even more annoyingly,
every time I open a document. As I;ve been using Word for over a decade now I
find it somehwat irritating to have to cancel Setting Started all the time...

I have tried unchecking Show Task Pane on Startup in Options but it makes no
difference.

Any help would be appreciated!

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ShowTaskPane.htm and try the
add-in that you can download from that page.
