I haven't had a chance to test yet, but Bob is probably right about Word
2003 (he almost always is). OHOH, I have a book on Office XP that clearly
shows the Print Preview button on the toolbar in that version, so I imagine
anyone who upgraded from Word 2002 to 2003 (as I did) would have had it.

I can't remember what I've done wrt moving my Normal.dot when I got a new
computer. I know I moved it from Word 2003 on my previous machine to Word
2003 on this one. In cases where I was starting with a new version (as in
the case of Word 2002 on the old machine) I may have started from
scratch--just can't recall. I know I did run into some interesting problems
with macros in moving from Word 6.0 to Word 95, but that's a story for
another time.

Yeah, you got him there, Suzanne:-)

In every version of Word I can recall [going back to Word 1.0 on the Mac]
there has been a Print Preview button on the Standard toolbar as an
out-of-the-box feature - right next to the Print button. It never had to
be
added to a toolbar as an optional customization prior to Word 2007 -
unless
you wanted it elsewhere as well or instead of the default location.

If developments on the Mac are any indication of coming trends in
Windows -
not that such a thing would ever happen or has ever happened in the
past:-)
- print services are being overtly assumed by the OS & printer software.
MS
may be weaning their apps away from Print Preview altogether - in
Office:Mac
2008 it's already been removed completely from Excel & PowerPoint.

Are you telling me that Print Preview was not on the Standard menu in
Word
2003 by default? I guess my installation must have inherited the setting
from either a previous version or an earlier customization. It was
certainly
on the Word 97 toolbar in an old screen shot I have, and I don't think I
added it there.

I don't know that it's any faster (fewer clicks), but perhaps it's more
"discoverable," that you can add Print Preview in Word 2003 by clicking
the
arrow at the end of the Standard toolbar (if you can find it with
Standard
and Formatting sharing a row), choosing Add or Remove Buttons and then
Standard (which has always seemed to me an unnecessary extra step) and
then
clicking on Print Preview.
