Sorry, the design is to not open another instance of a document that is already
open.  It seems that is all that the software was designed to do.  

There are two aspects to doing something beyond that.  One is to bring the
document to the front as at least restored (not minimized).  The other is to
put the focus in that document.

If it is working in Apache OpenOffice 3.4 and not now, we can look for a
regression.  Otherwise, we have to do it from scratch.  Knowing that it worked
in some OpenOffice.org version is not of much help.

This is recognized as an usability issue and a more-helpful behavior is
desired.  It looks like that takes something new.  It's different than looking
for a bug in the code.  I am clear it looks like a defect to those who are
startled by the current behavior.  I am changing it back to satisfy you.

Thanks for the sample document.  Any available existing documents can be used
to confirm this and have.  Is there something thought to be special about the
sample?
