When you open the document, which view does it open in? If the document text
is in one or more text boxes and the document opens in Draft view, it would
appear to be blank.

In MS Word 2007 when I open an existing document it opens as a blank page.
When I click on one of the page view buttons at the bottom of the screen I
can then see the document.
How can I open my document directly without first having the blank page.
Thanks for any help.
