2007: Start all docs in Draft?
Is there some option that I can set so that Word always starts a document
(old or new) in Draft view? I cannot find such an option. So I am constantly going into the View menu and choosing Draft for every document that I open to work on. |

Right click on the Status Bar (at the bottom of the screen) and check the
"View Shortcuts" item. Then you will just need one click to change the view. -- Hope this helps.

It should hold the last used view, but you can force any view with a pair of
autorunning macros saved in the normal template eg Sub AutoNew() ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdNormalView End Sub Sub AutoOpen() ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdNormalView End Sub -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org devistated wrote: Is there some option that I can set so that Word always starts a document (old or new) in Draft view?

Note that you may have to enable the "Allow opening a document in Draft
view" option in Word Options, Advanced category (under the "General" heading) for this to work properly. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

This is the answer that I was looking for -- no macros needed. The saves were
not holding the last view. I had looked in the Word Options, Advanced list but had looked in the "Display" options and had not looked at the "General" options. Thank you, Stefan.
