I asked this question some time ago (about getting W4W to open without a
Document 1).  Two replies were especially helpful.  First, if you decide not
to use Document 1 (the empty document) and instead immediately go to open
other document from the File menu, Word will automatically close Document 1.
This approach is certainly sensible.  If you want to start a new document,
it's right there.  If you want to open an old document, Word eliminates the
empty document.  If you start Word with a filename on the command line
(or by double clicking on an existing document) no Document 1 will be created.

Another suggestion I received (although I haven't tried it) is that if you
use the command line switch /n when starting Word you'll get no Document 1.
