Yes. View does have "Document Map" for closure, but it's not a command for
ALL Word Documents. Just the current one. I can't remember if I had turned
it off from times past. It was just a couple of days ago, that Document Map
reappeared. I don't know what triggered it back on.

If you close the document map before exiting Word, it should remain
closed when you restart Word. However, also note that the document map
may be displayed in one view (say Print Layout) and hidden in another.
(This is similar to having different zoom ratios in different views.)

If you open a document all you do is toggle off the DocMap (or change the
view zoom), Word won't save the change. You have to make a 'real' edit
before it will save and remember the view changes.

That is not the Document Map (which shows headings). That is View |
Thumbnails, which you must also turn off.
