I have Adobe Professional 8.0. Nearly every time I close a document (either using CTRL+W or File > Close), if there are several documents, rather than closing the document and taking me to another open document in Adobe, I leave the Adobe program (it does not close) and I have to hit Alt+Tab or click the Adobe icon in the Taskbar to get back to Adobe). This did not happen to me in my earlier version. I cannot tell if it is a preference that is set. If I close a document, I would like to remain in the Adobe program, not "skip out" to another program. The only time it does not happen (perhaps obviously) is if I have only one document opened in Adobe.
Thank you.
Try to open the Prefernces and click Documents in the left pane. Take a look at the first preference option where you see Show each document in its own window (requires restart).
Remove the checkmark,quit Acrobat, and relaunch the program.
See if that takes care of it.
