Publisher 2007 (12.0.6017.5000)
How do I get rid of the "format Publication" menu when opening a document in publisher from My Docs? The same annoying thing happens when I open Publisher itself. In the options menu I've de-selected what i believed to be the appropriate box. Any and all help appreciated! |

Publisher should open with your Document displayed and the task pane should be closed. -- John Inzer MS Picture It! - Digital Image MVP Digital Image Highlights and FAQs http://tinyurl.com/aczzp Notice This is not tech support I am a volunteer Solutions that work for me may not work for you Proceed at your own risk |

That is not correct, John. At least it isn't for me. The task pane is always
there. One can minimize it to very small and drag it to a part of the screen where it isn't in the way. It will be in this spot the next time Publisher is opened. Of course it can be closed in the current publication, but it will be back when Publisher is opened again. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "John Inzer" wrote in message ...

I think I must have a weird version of Publisher. The task pane isn't open with
2002 or 03, but it sure is in 07. There have been other folks with this problem posting here. Did you ever solve the status bar problem? I have saved all sorts of publications with the task pane closed, it is back when I re-open the file. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "John Inzer" wrote in message ...

I've double-clicked documents going back to 97, they all open with 2007. Even
after I save them again with the task pane closed, I still have the task pane when I re-open them. Maybe it will be fixed in the first service pack.
