Way to get Word to go back to 100% zoom when maximized
I do a lot of copying and pasting, and consequently I often shrink a
Word doc to 75% or so view, so that I can see the entire page, when the Word window itself has been shrunk to half of my screen (so I can view another doc on the other side of the screen). When I maximize one of the Word windows, the zoom setting remains at 75% until I change it back to 100. Is there a way to get Word to reset the zoom setting, when a document is maximized? I know if this is my biggest problem with Word, I got it made.... I'm just wondering if this can be done. |

As far as I know, doing what you want requires a macro.

Way to get Word to go back to 100% zoom when maximized
Hmmm I'll try to record one, and both maximize Word and change the
view setting to 100%. I'll see if that works---or were you talking about code here?

Way to get Word to go back to 100% zoom when maximized
Thanks. It appears to work regardless of the view setting that is
lower than 100%. I run the macro and the window is maximized, along with the zoom setting reset to 100%. Thanks. I wouldn't have thought that a macro could do this, but then again.... |

Something like this can be used:
Sub ZoomAndMaximize() ActiveWindow.WindowState = wdWindowStateMaximize ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100 End Sub Attach the macro to a toolbar button; see http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...
