Cannot set layout to normal
Everytime I click on new document it displays the print layout. I changed the
layout to normal and saved it to the normal.dot. I am still showing the print layout. Any suggestions on how to set the normal layout permanently? Thanks. |

When you have normal.dot open and you change the view, you then have to do something to make Word understand that the file needs to be saved. Most easily, type a space and then backspace to delete it. Then save and close the template. See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Genera...iewAndZoom.htm, particularly item 4. -- 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. |

Cannot set layout to normal
An additional "gotcha" that should probably be added to that article is that
Word 2007 won't open a document in Draft view (even if it's saved that way) unless you enable the option to open in Draft view (somewhere in Word Options). -- Suzanne S.
