Opening documents at "page width" view size

[Mark Scott]

I am not sure if this is the right group for this but when I start a new
word document it is started at the page width zoom setting but if I open up
an attachment or previously saved document it is at 100% zoom. How can I
get the document to display at the "page width" zoom by default?

Word will open documents in their last saved view. If you want to override
this you'll need a pair of macros (or add the relevant code to existing
macros of the same name):

Sub AutoNew()
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = wdPrintView
'.Type = wdNormalView
.Zoom.PageFit = wdPageFitBestFit
End With
End Sub

Sub AutoOpen()
With ActiveWindow.View
.Type = wdPrintView
.Zoom.PageFit = wdPageFitBestFit
End With
End Sub
