How to change default page view zoom setting in word

[Timothy1222]

Every time I open a new/blank document in word, the page view zoom is 57%. I
must need to change the normal.dot template? I want to change the default to
page width or 100%. I can not find where in the template srttings or in the
word options to do this.

Help!

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/SaveViewAndZoom.htm for an approach
that will work most of the time. If you find it unreliable in Word 2000,
2002, or 2003, an AutoNew/AutoOpen macro may be required.
