Suzanne likes to avoid vba but the view can be forced using auto macros.
An autoopen and an autonew macro in normal.dot each containing the lines

With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = wdPrintView
.Zoom.Percentage = 500
.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End With

will open every document at 100% (the zoom to 500% first fixes an occasional
bug that affects cursor size)
