Nice one, Albert.

In Word 2007, you'll find this in Options, then the "Advanced" tab,
and way down at the bottom in the General section is a check box
labelled, "Allow opening a document in draft view".

I missed that myself with 20/20 vision!

However, be warned that you do need to set Draft View with an
empty/blank document, then exit and re-start Word.

George.

In MS Word 2003 I go to the Tools Menu and click on Options, then in
the
General Tab I look for an item called, "allow files to be openned in
Reading
View" and uncheck that box.  I recently had to do this again following
an
auto update.  

I don't know where you'd find it in MS Word 2007 though.  

Thx, Albert

Subject: [VICUG-L] Word 2007 Normal View?

Hi, everyone.
Word 2007 seems to default to Print Layout View, but I don't like this
because it seems to present two pages on the screen at once.  I want
to make
Word default to what was Normal View in Word 2003. I've changed my
view to
Outline and thought that did it, but I don't think it did.  I want one
page
presented at a time, and I want to make that setting the default.
Which
View do I change Word to, and how do I make that view the default?
Are
there any other changes that need to be made, too?
Thanks for any help any of you can provide.
Rachel
