Default size when creating a new document

K

When I open a new document it is displayed in a certain size (xx%). How do I change this default size. I want the document to open in a size that is exactly the same as a standard A4 papersize. As my disply settings are 1024x768 and monitor is a 17" , about 85% is what I prefer for "default size".

Klas,

The standard answer is see:
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/SaveViewAndZoom.htm

I have read but not tested that article. Long ago I opted for an AutoOpen()
macro:

Sub AutoOpen()

ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 105

End Sub

You can delete the View.Type line if you like and use only the zoom
percentage line. Change 105 to 85 or whatever you like.
