Maintaining certain Toolbar and View settings
Hi,
Word won't allow me to permanently change my Toolbars and Tool|Options|View settings. I can't seem to permanently turn off the display of certain Toolbars--even though I disable them in the document (and the associated templates for that matter) and then Save. I have also tried disabling the display in the Tools | Customize menu and saving--to no avail. In addition, I would like to retain my Tools | Options | View settings. For example, I might have Hidden Text enabled when I open the document, but I want to suppress its display. So I turn it off, click OK in the Options dialog, and then Save. However when I close and then reopen the document in question, both the Toolbars and the Tool|Options|View settings revert to the pre-saved condition. FWIW, I use Word 2003 (SP3). Any help will be appreciated. thanks, -john |

John,
I use a AutoNew and AutoOpen macro in my document templates to "harness" annoying display and toolbars. Something like: Sub AutoNew() ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName With ActiveWindow.View .Type = wdPrintView .Zoom.PageFit = wdPageFitBestFit .FieldShading = wdFieldShadingAlways .ShowHiddenText = False End With With CommandBars .Item("Reviewing").Visible = False .Item("Mail Merge").Visible = False .Item("Forms").Visible = False End With End Sub |

Greg,
I haven't tried this befo Could you explain a bit more where you put the macro text and what you mean by using an AutoOpen macro (your code is only for AutoNew ??) Like John, I also get frustrated about all the various toolbars that love to come up and fill my screen, so your macro would be great!
