Problems with Microsft Word

[Raistlin]

Hi Guys,

Having a problem with Microsoft Word.

Whenever I open an existing document word always opens in Page Layout View (the one with the nasty layout pane down the left hand side).

I've tried switching back to normal view and then saving the document and closing Word but when I re-open the document (or any document) the Page Layout View comes back.

Is there a setting somewhere in the options that controls this? I've had a look but I can't find anything.

Thanks,

Raist

Do a search for "normal.dot" on your local drives, copy it somewhere if you wish and then delete it.

Word will create a new one next time you open it.

That should do the trick.

Normal.dot is a file to remember for a lot of issues with word It causes a lot of grief when it corrupts or refuses to remember settings.
