Re: zoom page width

One possibility is that there is a minor corruption in the Word data key in
the registry which stores a lot of settings. Try renaming the data -
'settings' sub key (see http://www.gmayor.com/my_toolbars_are_missing.htm
which shows how to locate it ) Rename to OldSettings. Restart Word which
will build a new default key. If that fixes it, restore your preferences. If
not, close Word, delete the new Settings sub key and rename the old one back
to Settings.

Do you have any third party add-ins that could be interfering? Start Word in
its safe mode (hold CTRL) whilst starting Word and see if it clears the
problem. If it does - see

Graham, you are right of course. I however didn't fully explain what
I was driving at. I have Word fully maximized and I also have the
window inside of word fully maximized.

Even with the window fully maximized and I click on zoom and page
width, it will not set it above 100%. I use to be able to do it and
would get over 200% automatically. I can set this number bigger
manually, but I would like to be able to have it select the best zoom
size based on the size of my screen.

I hope that I can get a resolution on this.

So if I "made the window too narrow," then how do I change the
window to allow more than 100%?

Thank

Page width displays the full width of the page at whatever
magnification is required to fill the available window, so the
implication is that you have made the window too narrow to display
at more than 100%

I'm currently using Word 2003 at the office. It works fine, but I
must have changed something. When I am in normal view, I try to
zoom to the page width. I know that when I first installed Word,
that it would fill my entire screen. Now when I try to do it, it
stops at 100%.

I can increase the zoom manually, but when I select page width it
goes back to 100%. What did I change to cause it to stop at 100%?

Please let me know.
Thank you
Terry
