If I do split screen panes for a doc, is there a shortcut to toggle between
the two panes?
 
Yes. F6 and Shift+F6.

If you've got only two panes, then backward or forward is the same thing.

Window | Split or drag the narrow button at the top of the vertical scroll
bar downward.

That was what I already had. But from your message ("only" two panes), I
thought you were implying that there was a way to get more than two panes.
Or are you calling two documents two panes? In other words, my follow up was
to see if there was a way to split the same document into more than 2 panes.
 
What you asked was "more than one" rather than "more than two." I have
always wondered about the F6 and Shift+F6 commands. They're defined as "Go
to next pane or frame" and "Go to the previous pane or frame," so perhaps
"frame" is the operative word here (though what type of frame is meant, I
have no idea). Ctrl+F6 and Ctrl+Shift+F6 are the comparable compands for
Next Window/Previous Window, and obviously you can have more than two
windows open.

I think the 'frame' referred to is a frame in a web page.

(normal) panes and web page frames are unrelated but mutually exclusive so
the same keys are being used for two different purposes in two different
situations.
 
The reason I was dubious about Web page frames is that the table I have of
the function key assignments came from a very old KB that I would have
thought predated Word's HTML capabilities.
