only show the final version of the word document
Hello Experts
How can I change the following views?
Everytime I open a document, it automatically opens in 'read layout' view when I would rather see it wysiwyg - print layout. How can I make print layout the default?
Some docs open with revisions (final showing markup). I am not interested in previous revisions - I just want to see the FINAL version.
I can change this pretty quickly with the Review toolbar, but it does this everytime I open said documents. Even if I save it in FINAL view.
Can anyone help me change this?
I am using word 2007 and saved the file as .doc
Thanks!

On second thought, try this:
in Word, Word Options, Trust Center
Trust Center Settings
Make sure this is checked: "Make hidden markup visible when opening or saving a document"
Give it a shot - although the best way to accomplish this is to just accept all changes.

thanks for your input folks...
yes all i want to do is set some setting options on the word so that once made the changes and save, it should only show the final change nothing else.
i have tried as suggested
in Word, Word Options, Trust Center
Trust Center Settings
where can i find this
Make sure this is checked: "Make hidden markup visible when opening or saving a document"?
I would imagine it should be unchecked?

As for setting all track changes docs to view Final, again, I believe it is pulled from the way the document was last viewed and saved. You could have a macro I suppose, but I personally don't think it would be worth it.
