Default Remove frame so that Word 2003 document returns to Print Layou

Thanks for taking the time to reply to my post.

I tried out your suggestion but it didn't make any difference. The delete
option in the frames menu remains faded, possibly because I have not clicked
on a frame. I haven't clicked on a frame because there is not one visible.

If I right click on the document, I am given the option "Save Current Frame
As..." and also the option "Frame Properties..." so the frame does exist. It
just can't be seen to click on.

As you have probably realised, frames from the Frames toolbar are intended
for web pages. If the frame you created is still associated with the
document, the delete frame button on the Frames toolbar will be available.
If you have removed it it will not. If the frame has been removed. Change
the view to print layout. Add a character to the document then delete it
then resave the document. The print layout view should then be retained.

While attempting to add a frame to a graphic in a Word 2003 document,
I accidentally clicked "New Frame Left" on the Forms toolbar. Now,
although the document has been saved in Print Layout view, every time
it is opened all 200 pages appear in Web Layout view. Although it is
a simple matter to change the view manually, is there a way to undo
the "New Frame Left" command so that the document will appear in
Print Layout view whenever it is opened? No frame is visible when the
document is opened. The document prints okay in Web Layout View
although on the screen the text is pushed to the left. When saved,
the 20,442 KB file becomes a 22KB file.

I hope that someone can help. I have spent weeks searching the
Internet for a solution.
