OK, I've tried the various techniques to change the start-up order,
but nothing seems to work. Here's the problem...

2 documents labelled "word startup" and "unix". The first is a
Word 4 document and the second an NCSA Telnet 2.3 document. I want
"unix" to be the active window after rebooting.  As advised I
selected both documents, chose Selected Items from the Set Startup...
menu, rebooted, and "word startup" was the active window.

Then I changed the name of "word startup" to "a word startup",
again selected it and "unix", made them the startup items, rebooted,
and guess what -- "a word startup" was STILL the active window.

Changing the name of the application, rather than the document,
made no difference.

Is this just a quirk of Word 4?
