changing the default view when opening word file in an email...
I use Win XP with MS Office 2007.
Many of the emails I receive have Word attachments. When I open these documents, they often open in 2 page viewer option. I get that dialog/option box that asks me if I would prefer to have them open as tradtional word docs, I click yes, but it still happens. This only happens when I open a doc that is attached to an email. If I save/copy the doc into a folder then view it, it doesn't happen. How can I turn this function off? Thank you- asf |

You're welcome. The wording in Word 2003 is "Allow starting in Reading
Layout," which is a little more ambiguous (no reference to attachments) and equally easy to overlook. -- Suzanne S.
