Switching in between Word Documents

I have a macbook with Microsoft office on it. When I am typing up a paper and I have my notes on another Word document, is there any way to get there by using some kind of shortcut key? I know the apple key + tab can go inbetween two seperate programs, but that doesn't help me, and I don't like using my hot corners and having to try to figure out which window is the one I want. Any ideas on my problem?

F9 = Expose. It shows all active windows, and you can click on whichever one you want open.
F10 = Expose of all windows of the application you're in at the time. Example: you have 3 word files open: essay, notes, bullshit. You hit F10, all 3 pop up, you go from essay to notes, copy, hit F10 again, go back to essay.

or u can get used to the hot corners, using the windows part, that will pop open all programs u got open. i like it, its quick instead of tapping the f9 or f10 buttons...
if u dont know where it is, then go to apple, then system preference then dashboard and expose and choose what corner u want.
for mine, bottom left is windows, top right is dashboard (widgets) and bottom right is desktop. i dont want anything for the top left since i go to that corner all the time to close out whatever and i would always accidentally open up the hot corner thing it was driving me nuts so i took it out.

for switching between windows IN the same app, you just have to hit
command + รน (or the key left to the Z)
it switches only through all the windows in the app you're in

apple button plus q will be your best friend, thus eliminating entrance to that corner. that's how i roll.
my corners are upper left = all window, bottom left = app windows, top right = desktop, bottom right = sleep
All times are Eastern (-5)
