Default open to "Final" no "Final show'g Markup"
Office Word 2K3
A document always opens to "Final Showing Markup." How do I default it to opening "Final"? I've tried changing the view, and then saving the document, but that doesn't work. Thanks. Ken |

If you want it to default to Final, you must (at minimum) Accept All Changes
in Document and Delete All Comments in Document. As long as the document contains markup, Word will default to showing it. There is a setting to change this default, but there's a good reason it's on the Security tab of Tools | Options, and disabling it doesn't always result in changing the default view, anyway. -- Suzanne S.

If there are no tracked changes or comments in your document,
then Final view would look the same as Final Showing Markup view. Word 2003 opens to Final Showing Markup view to let you know that your document contains tracked changes and/or comments, and to save you possible grief from inadvertently sending the document out that way. But if you really want to turn this feature off, you can by clicking on Tools | Options | Security | uncheck the "Make hidden markup visible when opening or saving" box | OK.
