Is there a way of making it vary or making it fix at 100%. I have a customer
who says hers is constantly opening at 54%

Thanks in advance

Apart from the fact that it is very bad practice to open Word documents
directly from e-mails (which leads to information loss if the documents are
edited), the zoom setting is saved with the document. If you want a document
to open at 100% zoom regardless of what is saved in the document, you need
an autoopen macro containing the line:

ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100

saved in normal.dot.

See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm and
