Set Default Review Mode in Word 2007
Hello, I am running Office 2007 on Windows XP. In Word I would like to set
the default Display for Review to 'Final' instead of 'Final showing Markup". Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. |

Set Default Review Mode in Word 2007
You are running a great risk of inadvertently sending out a document with markup to someone who you don't want to see the markup. The default setting is there to protect you from an embarrassing mistake. There is a document-specific setting in the Trust Center (Office Button, Word Options, Trust Center, Trust Center Settings, Privacy Options, Make hidden markup visible when opening or saving check box), which I have found to be somewhat erratic. To do what you want globally, you'll need to create an AutoOpen macro. If you are handling legal documents, documents shared with customers or suppliers, etc., I would never, ever do the following, which will cause the Display for Review to be final whatever document you open; this macro must be named AutoOpen and should be saved in the Normal template (Normal.dotm). Sub Autoopen() ' ' Shows revisions as final and shows no revision or comments ' This affects all documents opened whether they have tracked changes or not ' Doing the following is strongly discouraged and may lead to embarrassing ' and expensive mistakes With ActiveWindow.View .ShowRevisionsAndComments = False ' include this line or view won't 'change! .RevisionsView = wdRevisionsViewFinal End With End Sub See following http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm for help re copying a macro "jimmer" wrote: Hello, I am running Office 2007 on Windows XP.
