How do I get it to come up in the current window instead of a whole new Word window every time? I'm running Word 2000.
 
Short answer is you can't - it's a feature :)

See the following from the Office 2000 help file

My document opened in a separate window.

When you create or open a document in Word 2000, the document opens in a separate window. You can quickly switch from one document to another by clicking the document's button on the taskbar or by pressing ALT+TAB.
