view format & track changes- use default setting instead of how document was saved? (W2003)
I sometimes get documents from co-workers where (when I open them) the view
is something different that what I normally use (normal vs print layout), and sometimes the track changes bar comes up when a document is opened too. I'd like for every document I open to open in print layout view (regardless of how the previous person saved it) and always come up without the track changes bar (we tend to use other methods of version control). Is there a way for me to set up my Word2003 installation to "override" any settings saved in the document?

Thanks, Keith Go to http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm and scroll down to the "Auto macros" section. Those macros will do what you want (and maybe a bit more... you may want to omit the line that sets ..DisplayPageBoundaries). The first part of the article explains how to install the macros. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
