This is really odd.
Create a new document. Set it to NORMAL view and save it.
Now close the document.
Reopen the document ans set it to PRINT LAYOUT view.
Save the document and close it again.
Now open the document once more, and notice it is still in NORMAL view. In
fact, once saved in NORMAL view, I can not get it to ever save in PRINT
LAYOUT view again.
What in the world is going on? Is this a bug with Word 2003 SP2.
Thanks in advance,
Gary
