    Another method, in Windows 7 or later, is to press the Windows key, the Shift key, and the left or right arrow key to move the active window from the right screen to the left or from the left screen to the right, respectively.

    I find the procedure exactly the same in both versions of Office - click anywhere above the ribbon tabs and drag (as with any other application as well.

    Got it now.  Cursor must be on file name only at top of Word 2016 doc, unlike Word 2010 doc. Thanks.

    Tried that. Cursor does not grab document.  Does not move document.

    The same way you moved Word 2010 docs - click and drag at the top of the word screen
