MS Word 2007 - Switching between open windows

There may be a simple answer to this question, so I thought I'd post a thread. I'm using MS Office 2007 on CrossOver 7.0.2 on a Mac in a WinXP bottle. MS Word seems to work fairly well for my purposes. But I often want to work with more than one MS Word document open at a time. Generally I'm unable to switch between open windows. Although going to View -> Switch Windows shows a list of all open documents, selecting any of the open documents won't let them come up. The active MS Word window will turn gray, as if it's gone to the background, but the other window I select won't come up. If I click on the minimize window button at the upper right I can see the other open windows. Thus, this is a work-around that let's me hide all the windows I don't want to see to get to the one I want. Anyone have a similar problem of have a sense of how to fix this? Thanks in advance!

You can switch open windows using CMD + Left or CMD + Right
