Changing the View a Document Opens As
We have many word documents on our network that many users make changes to.
We would like to be able to right-click print these documents from the folder without opening them. As of right now, we are unable to do so because some of the documents are saved in a "MARKUP" view. We have to open and manually change the view to be able to print these documents. Is there anyway to be able to save the document with a "PRINT" view? I have even tried saving the document to my desktop, copy and paste to a new document saved to network and desktop, and changing the view then re-saving the document. |

It's one of the security measures that Word documents which contain unresolved "Tracked Changes" are opening with these visible. [It's better that way, IMHO, because this reduces the chances that you send out such a document unaware of the fact that the Tracking information is still present.] If you don't want your users to save the documents that way in the frist place, you have a couple of options (training, Auto-Macros that trigger on exit/save, etc.). If you only want to print the documents w/o tracking information no matter what's in there, you might need to launch Word with an AutoMacro switching the view, then printing. I'd ask in one of the VBA groups for directions. HTH Robert -- /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | MS \ / | MVP X Against HTML | for / \ in e-mail & news | Word |
