Minimizing one more window puts them all in one button

Minimizing one more window puts them all in one button

Lets say I have 5 word documents open and they all are minimized and
represented by individual buttons on the taskbar.

I open one more word document, and suddenly it piles all of the buttons into
one button that says "6 Microsoft Office"

I understand that it does that when it runs out of space on the taskbar, but
if I close one of the word documents bringing the number back down to 5, they
all stay in one button when you think that they would spread out again,
because it was able to fit that number side by side on the task bar before.

How can I get them to spread out on the task bar again, so I don't have
click to button and view a list of them?

Although not a FrontPage question, you can right click your task bar, click
properties and then untick "Group similar taskbar buttons". Then you won't
have to worry about how many are grouped on one button.

Thi is a Windows Setting, nothing to do with Frontpage.
