Default Make the default view be normal (no IT NEVER IS, YOU IDIOTS

If you always want documents to open in normal view then
it is simple enough to achieve. Word will always open in
normal view, regardless of what was saved with the
document by using the following auto macros. You can
change the zoom setting to something different if you
prefer.


Sub AutoNew()
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = wdNormalView
.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End With
End Sub


That's cool. How do I make .Zoom.Percentage equal to "page
width"? I tried this:

quote

Sub AutoNew()

With ActiveWindow.View

.Type = wdPrintView

.Zoom.Percentage = PageWidth

End With

End Sub



Sub AutoOpen()

ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName

With ActiveWindow.View

.Type = wdPrintView

.Zoom.Percentage = wdPageWidth

End With

End Sub
/quote

But neither "PageWidth" nor "wdPageWidth" works.
