Default Change default setting for how a Word document opens in email?

If you are referring to Reading Layout view (Full Screen Reading view in
Word 2007), here's how to turn it off:

- Tools | Options, General tab. Clear the "Allow starting in Reading Layout"
option. Click OK. (Word 2003)

- Office button | Word Options, Popular category. Clear the "Open e-mail
attachments in Full Screen Reading view" option. (Word 2007)

When I open a Word document attached to an email in Outlook, it always
opens
in "preview" view. How do I change the default setting so that it opens in
print layout?
