I mostly work in web view these days. How can I make web view the default view, when I open Word 2013? Word always opens in print view, even though I set the Normal.dotm template to web view.
It works in 2010 (when I set the Normal template to web view, Word 2010 opens in web view by default), why doesn't it work in 2013?
Anything I can do about this, like maybe a registry edit, or anything else? Anyone any suggestions?
(Before you answer, understand that I'm not a programming/coding guru)
Thanks in advance.
Sorry about the AutoNew macro; it looks like Word 2013 doesn't trigger the New command when it makes the blank document at startup.
The problem with AutoExec is that at the time that macro runs, there is no document and therefore no ActiveWindow or View to set the type in. That requires a workaround, similar to the one in http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/AutoExecUsertFm.htm. I've verified that this works:
Sub AutoExec()
Application.OnTime _
When:=Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), _
Name:="WebView"
End Sub
Sub WebView()
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdWebView
End Sub
