How to Make ALL Documents view "100%"?
I get a lot of .doc file attachments in my email. When I click on them to
view, my Word 2007 ends up displaying them with VARIOUS (diferent!) page view magnifications each time. Some times they'll display around 200%-or-so. Sometimes around 175%, etc. QUESTION: I would like ALL of these .doc attachments to initially display at 100% (full-page view) .. . . withOUT me having to "manually" shrink or enlarge whatever roll-of-the-dice magnificiation the paticular document initially displays! Is there any SIMPLE way to do this? (Note: I do NOT know "VBA" or any fancy programming. Please keep the answer EASY to implement, ok?) Thanks for your help! |

How to Make ALL Documents view "100%"?
Generally, documents open in the view and zoom that they were saved. To set
a specific view for existing documents or templates, just open them and set the zoom as desired (see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/SaveViewAndZoom.htm). However, for documents created by others, you have no control over the initial view. Instead, you will have to change the settings manually, as described above. Alternatively, use a macro to force the desired settings as you open documents. Read the article at http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm and then use the following code in your normal.dotm temploate to force Print Layout view, with a zoom of 100%: Sub AutoNew() ActiveWindow.View.Type = 3 ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100 End Sub Sub AutoOpen() ActiveWindow.View.Type = 3 ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100 End Sub -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Jim In Minneapolis" wrote in message ...

Thanks, Stefan
Your macro approach works great. I appreciate your patience with me. Jim "Stefan Blom" wrote: Generally, documents open in the view and zoom that they were saved.
