I want to save ActiveWindow.view properties and later restore them.
Set obj=ActiveWindow.View
will store the properties in the object obj but when I come to restore,
I cannot use the reciprocal
Set ActiveWindow.View=obj.
Short of resetting each property individually, what is the neatest way
to restore them all.

The View property is read-only, so you'll have to set each property
separately.

Clarification: Each property of the View OBJECT must be set
separately.

As I stated in a previous message, the View property cannot be set
(unlike, say, the Font property of a Style object).
But note that if you gave a detailed description of what you are
trying to accomplish, someone might be able to suggest a different,
possibly better, approach.
