Keeping MS Word Outline Sections Collapsed
Using Word Outline mode a lot.
Any way to keep sections "collapsed" you close / reopen a document ? When I open a document - it expands the entire outline - would like sections to remain collapsed Thanks ! |

This cannot be done in the user interface, unfortunately. You could use a
macro. To simply show (say) Heading 1--Heading 3 paragraphs would be straightforward: Sub test() ActiveWindow.View.Type = 2 ' Outline view ActiveWindow.View.ShowHeading 3 ' Show levels 1--3 only End Sub But if you want something more advanced, you'd better ask in a programming newsgroup. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Dave" wrote in message oups.com...

Stefan - thanks a lot for your response. I was hoping there'd be some
way for document to "remember" what sections were collapsed/open when document is closed - and simply resume that structure when document is re-opened. Oh well, maybe I need to investigate a separate dedicated outlining program. On Aug 27, 6:01 am, "Stefan Blom" wrote: This cannot be done in the user interface, unfortunately. You could use a macro.
