How do I disable reading layout for Word 2008?

[WAArnold]

I have Office 2008 for Mac. I get a dual page view (reading view) when I
open email attachment. Prior edition had a close button. Cannot find info
about disabling this function in 2008 version.

ESC should close it in any version. To disable it entirely, look in your
preferences (this setting is in Options | General in Word versions). If you
