I don't want Reading Layout to appear when I open Word documents in Outlook
2003. This is what Help says:



Note When you open a Microsoft Word document that you have received as an
e-mail attachment, Word automatically switches to reading layout view. If
you don't want to use reading layout view for e-mail attachments, clear the
Allow starting in Reading Layout check box on the General tab of the Options
dialog box (Tools menu).



However, in the Tools menu there is no General tab under Tools, Options, and
I can't find the 'Allow starting in Reading Layout' check box anywhere else
in the Options.



This is a really aggravating feature - how can I turn it off?



Thanks,

Mich
 
I found it; I was looking in Outlook under Tools, Options, when I needed to
look in Word.
The annoyance has now been removed!
