you have the most up-to-date content in both locations.

A blank document appears. Or, if you've selected a template for new
documents in the Options dialog box, that template appears with
appropriate text and formatting already provided.
You can open only one document at a time; when you open a second document, you'll
be asked to save the first. You can save a document you create or edit in a variety of
formats, including:
• Word (.doc)
• Pocket Word (.psw)
