A couple of Word 2007 issues
1. I set my View Page to Page Width. Yet, each time I open word, it is like
rolling dice. It never opens with the same View setting. Why won't word 2007 keep the view page setting I set-up? 2. I can never find the "Select Table" function. It's like I need a secret decoder ring to find what used to be straight forward menu items. 3. Plus, my default page layout seems to be randomly reset. For example; I use a .7" Margin for my default. Somehow, this changes to 1" without any reason I can see. 4. Even my Default Fonts keep getting reset to the "New" Calibri Font, which I do not use. Office 2007 takes me twice as long to do just about anything, if I can figure out how. Now I see why my customers are refusing to upgrade. Thanks -- Life is an adventure with God leading. |

Have you changed the settings in Normal.dotm (or by changing defaults) or
just in a single document? -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Ande" wrote in message ... 1. I set my View Page to Page Width.

I go into the set-up/configuration for Fonts and Page Setup for Margins.
After making my changes I click on "Default" and get a dialog box saying that the changes will affect all documents after I continue. -- Life is an adventure with God leading. "Suzanne S.

They should affect *new* documents but have no effect on existing ones. If
you're not seeing the settings in new documents, then it may be that something is preventing Normal.dotm from being saved. -- Suzanne S.

You can rename it, and Word will generate a fresh, factory-default copy.
