In Word 2007, how do youi set the template to "Draft" instead of "Print
Layout"? I keep having to manually set all docs I create and/or open to
"Draft", and it's becoming really annoying.

To change the default view to Draft view when a Word 2007 document is
opened, follow these steps:

1. Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Word Options.

2. Click Advanced.

3. Under General, click to select the "Allow opening a document in Draft

Interesting. You use Google, not MSN, or your own support site search in
order to find your own kb info.

This is a peer group and nothing to do with Microsoft, beyond the fact that
they host the forum.

It's not my KB, as I do not work for Microsoft, but I'd bet you'd be
hard-pressed to find many Microsoft employees willing to claim ownership of
the KB, either. I suspect that even most Softies use Google, as KB search
has been badly broken for quite some time now.
