MS Office Forum / Word / Menus and Toolbars / May 2004is it possible to change the default style of templates listed in file | new
We'd like to change from icons to list (automatically, for all users). We know about intercepting the filenew command and using sendkeys("%2") to do this, but this doesn't work if the user chooses to go through the task pain and create a new document from a template that way instead of the file | new menu. any suggestions appreciated. thanks. Chip SendKeys is the only way I know of doign this.

Apparently, there's no way to intercept commands called via the task pane. It's not just a problem with FileNew, but with pretty much all the functionality. You (and anyone else customizing Word) need to complain loud and long to Microsoft about this, via the feedback places on microsoft.com Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Sep 30 2003) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |
