How do you toggle or switch between documents in Word 2007?

In the previous Word version, when in one Word document, you could switch to
other open Word docs - the keyboard combination was Alt-F6. It doesn't work
in Word 2007, and there is no drop down box or option in the ribbon to do
this. Anybody know the key strokes to toggle among Word docs?
Thanks!

Thanks sooo much. It must have jogged something, because now I can switch
between docs with both CTRL-F6 and ALT-F6. Magic! Thanks again.

Move from an open dialog box back to the document for dialog boxes such as
Find and Replace that support this behavior.
ALT+F6

Go to the next window.
CTRL+F6


Go to the previous window.
CTRL+SHIFT+F6


(When I tried, I didn't have any dialog boxes open so it just toggled
between the open docs.)
