read-pane view
Reading pane just doesn't work for me. I prefer the Print Layout as you
suggest. When you work with Word documents that include bulleted/numbered items, tables or diagrams is just not useful. Since Word starts in reading pane mode by default I just needed to "deactivate" this option under the Tools-Options Menu. Now I'm back to my beloved Word. -Rosa Baltimore, MD "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote: Hi ?B?YmM=?=, During beta of Word 2003 this point was much discussed. Personally, I prefer to have "read mode" work like a book, which means you'd always get the next 2 pages, and no page would repeat. Apparently, the majority of beta testers felt this way, because in the end, that's how it works. FWIW, the reading mode is NOT intended to be a mode where you type/edit. It's meant purely for reading large amounts of text comfortably. It supports editing mostly to allow corrections. In your case, I suggest you use either Print Layout or possibly the Full Screen view. In order to see multiple pages you can use View/Zoom, activate this option and choose the number of pages you wish to display. In word 2003, it has this great new feature to 'read' your essay. however, when approaching the end of the 2nd page of writing (that is, the second page in read mode) and begin typing on the 3rd, you will be presented with the third page on the left and nothing on the right. Instead, it'd be pretty good if the 2nd page was on the left and the new, 3rd, page on the right so that you could read what you'd just typed.
