default page orientation for all new documents
After preparing several new documents with landscape page layouts, Word has
decided that I want the page layout for all new documents to be landscape. I am tired of having to change the page layout back to protrait everytime I open a new document, but can't find where the default values are set. Anybody know? |

You may want to try opening your Normal.dot file typically found in
C:\Documents and Settings\ your user name \Application Data\Microsoft\Templates. Make sure you open the file, rather than double-clicking on the icon, as this will not open the template, but create a new document. Now change the landscape to portrait via File, Page Setup, save and close. You have now changed the template this used every time you want to create a new document ---hope this works. "K.

In a new Word document, without making any other changes, go to File | Page
Setup and change the orientation to Portrait. Click Default... and answer Yes. For more, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...alTemplate.htm -- Suzanne S.
