Word 2003 Reading Pane

D

A little background: We have through a group policy set the Reading Layout
view to be turned off in Word 2003. However, when opening a Word attachment
to an e-mail, the attachment opens in the Reading Layout view. I know that
this can be turned off (under Tools/Options/General and deselecting Allow
starting in Reading Layout).

My question is this: is there a Registry setting that will turn off the
Reading Layout view when opening an e-mail attachment in Word without the
user having to manually deselect it?

No - what views users employ is a matter for them. You would do better
training users not to open documents directly from e-mails. This leads to
the loss of work and is a constant theme in these Word forums. It is much
better in Office 2007. See http://www.gmayor.com/outlook_attachments.htm
