MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / October 2007Annoyance: Documents opening in markup mode
I think my word is configured to open in markup mode, because no matter if I save a document in normal or print, it always appears in markup mode as well. I don't want it, so I recently added the following code to my documents, to switch off markup mode, when the document is opened. Sub Document_Open() WordBasic.ViewChanges If ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial = wdPaneNone Then ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdPrintView Else ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView End If End Sub Is there a way to switch markup mode off through word options, or is there a way to add the above code to my personal macro workbook, so that all documents open normally? Kind regards Dylan I think what you want (in Word 2003) is Tools > Options > Security tab > uncheck "Make hidden markup visible when opening or saving"  SignatureEnjoy, Tony >I think my word is configured to open in markup mode, because no matter if >I [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > Kind regards > Dylan Tony Thank you! I looked in Tools > Options before, but couldn't see the setting -. I think the wording is a bit ambiguous.

However, now I notice that this doesn't stop markup from being displayed when I open a document. I suspect it may have something to do with the administrator's security settings. My macro works fine. But, at present I will need to enter it into every document. Is there a way to add it to my "normal.dot", so that it acts on every document I open.

The solution is to accept all changes and to make sure the TRK at the bottom of the frame is greyed out to avoid tracking further changes.

Does this mean that for every document you have to accept the changes and then hit TRK on the bottom and then save? I'm having difficulty with this because when I batch print from Adobe PDF it includes all the comments and every document has a date on it. So everyday when I open the document the date changes in the footer meaning I have to accept it everytime. By the way, how to you enter a macro into the dot file? Miguel > I found the solution in ms.p.w.docmanagement. > [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > > Kind regards > > Dylan Miguel, If you do not intend to track changes then you should be OK. You should only worry about track changes if the TRK at the bottom of the document is toggled ON or very dark in color. See this website about track changes, note the link about security and why you might want certain options enabled to tell you if track changes is ON before you send a document to someone else. http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/HowTrackChangesWorks.html > I'm a bit confused on this. > Does this mean that for every document you have to accept the changes and [quoted text clipped - 60 lines] >>> Kind regards >>> Dylan SignatureRuss drsmN0SPAMikleAThotmailD0Tcom.INVALID Miguel, In regards to your macro question, you might find this webpage helpful. http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm > I'm a bit confused on this. > Does this mean that for every document you have to accept the changes and [quoted text clipped - 60 lines] >>> Kind regards >>> Dylan SignatureRuss drsmN0SPAMikleAThotmailD0Tcom.INVALID |
