First, are you sure about the following sequence?:

If I close the untitled window, I _can't_ choose the EndNote Plus module
from Word's Tools menu--All of the EndNote menu options are dimmed.

However, if I run Word, choose the EN+ module from Word's Tool menu, then
close the Untitled document, I _do_ have the same problem (being unable to
open documents from the Finder) that you report.

If I'm remembering correctly, I've also had another, probably related
problem: If the EndNote+ module is running in Word and I choose restart or
shutdown from the Finder, the shutdown process stops at Word. (I.e. it
doesn't successfully tell Word to quit.)
