How do I open a word attachment in print layout view mode?
My company upgraded to microsft office 2003. When opening word doc
attachments, they open with the "view" setting in "reading layout" mode. What you see is everything jumbled up. This is happening to everyone in the office. One has to manually change the "view" mode to the "print layout" mode. Many of us in the office have tried to find a setting option that will dictate that word docs open in "print layout" mode by default. Is this possible. If so, how? Thanks! |

In Tools Options General, uncheck "Allow starting in Reading Layout". The documents will then open in the view in which they were last saved; if that was Print Layout, you're all set. If you get many attachments that open in Normal view or one of the others, you can force the issue by adding this macro to your Normal.dot template (see http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm if necessary): Public Sub AutoOpen() ActiveWindow.View = wdPrintView End Sub -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
