Zoom default when word opens

[Guest]

Hi there,

i have a client who has has just started using Word 2007. Whenever she opens
it the default is set to 10% and as you can imagine i very small!

How do you chnage the default so that when she opens it, the blank page is
larger.

I'm not sure if she has changed any settings by accident.

Any help appreciated

Tell your client to close all her Word documents, leaving 1 new empty Word
window on screen. Set the zoom where she wants it, then close Word. When she
reopens Word, the zoom will be set to wherever she set it.

That doesn't make any difference here?

See Change the zoom setting -
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/SaveViewAndZoom.htm
or
You can control the zoom with auto macros in normal.dot. The following will
set it to 100% zoom regardless of what the document thinks it should be.
Change the 100 to any preferred zoom level.

See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm

Sub AutoNew()
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = wdPrintView
.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End With
End Sub

Sub AutoOpen()
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = wdPrintView
.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End With
End Sub

Hi Graham,

Thanks for you suggestion but this unforunately hasn't worked! We have
macros which we have created in-house. I don't know whether this could have
something to do with it as the client startup folder has obviously been
changed for the our macros.

Thanks again,

Fiona

Managed to solve it! I was originally altering the wrong template! Thanks for
your help,
