Author how do I see other open windows?

I'm learning how to do some vector art so I typically am working on my main file and then open a few others that contain vector graphics I want to copy and paste from, the thing that stink is that I am repeatedly having to minimize my main image, maximize
one with some vectors and copy the one I want, minimize that and then go back and maximize my main again.

Is there a pallet that I can use or something? I've tried cascading and the other window options but I prefer to have the image I'm working on full sized.

Ctrl+F6 will toggle through open documents. Otherwise, you can select any open document from the Window menu within AI. (Click on Window at the top, then look at the bottom of the menu.)

I use window/tile to view them all on mine at once.

I'm assuming the OP included tiling in his statement...

I've tried cascading and the other window options...

CTRL + TAB for windows will step you through open windows. Makes a dynamite review method for comparing old document against new one.

Perhaps in AI 13 (CS3). In any earlier version of Illustrator, that will not work.
