Limit Alt+Tab display to one icon for each application in use

[kip_pheil]

I use the alt+tab to toggle between applications but find it tedious when the
display of documents gets to more than about six. This happens when I have
multiple documents from any given program open and each is displayed.

I'd prefer to have one icon per operating application so I could go to, for
example, Word or Adobe Reader or Excel or IE.

Can I modify the display properties so that each application only shows one
image regardless of how many files within that application are open?

Thanks for any assistance.
