Preview Pane in Word 2007
I'm new to Word 2007....and frustrated by not being able to have documents
shown in the preview pane. I've found Open/Organize/Layout/Preview Pane....but whenever I highlight a file, nothing comes up in the preview pane. Help, please! -- AndyP

In case it matters, I'm using Vista.

Preview Pane in Word 2007
Hi Andy,
In the open dialog in Vista, my understanding is that the Windows 'thumbnail' checkbox, at present, overrides the preview pane even if the Word Advanced Properties Box (Alt, F, E, P), then 'Document Properties|v', Advanced Summary tab has the 'Save preview picture' box checked. ========= "AndyP" wrote in message ...

Preview Pane in Word 2007
Thanks, Bob. If I understand your response, you're telling me that "yes, it
doesn't work and, as presently configured, you can't make it work." Bummer! You seem to be an Office official.....drop everything and fix this, will you?!! :-) This is a very disappointing loss-of-feature. Since my post, I've discovered a workaround....the preview pane in Windows Explorer DOES work, so perhaps that's the path to my documents/spreadsheets/etc. instead of the Office 2007 program itself. Thanks again. -- AndyP "Bob Buckland ?:-)" wrote: Hi Andy, In the open dialog in Vista, my understanding is that the Windows 'thumbnail' checkbox, at present, overrides the preview pane even if the Word Advanced Properties Box (Alt, F, E, P), then 'Document Properties|v', Advanced Summary tab has the 'Save preview picture' box checked. ========= "AndyP" wrote in message ...
