MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / January 2007Can't get Options to Stick
I'm using Word XP. I like to set the Options to turn off most of the bells and whistles. My options aren't sticking. They used to stick. I recall that Acrobat once interfered with Word 2000 in that fashion. Acrobat doesn't seem to be the culprit here -- Word & Acrobat have been playing nicely lately. But -- I installed LexisNexis Citation Tools (an add-in with its own toolbar), and wonder if that can be interfering? Short of uninstsalling the Citation Tools, what can I do to get the Options to stick? Is there a tweak or reg hack that will let me use both? I use Word for legal documents. <*(((>< ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi Fish > I'm using Word XP. I like to set the Options to turn off most of the > bells and whistles. My options aren't sticking.

Does unselecting the Add-In (Tools | Templates and Add-Ins; and only activate it when in need) help? 0.2¢ Robert  Signature/"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | MS \ / | MVP X Against HTML | for / \ in e-mail & news | Word Ooooh, what a great idea!
