Hello.

I'm using Office 2003.

Is there a way to disable the Getting Started menu so that it does not
appear upon an Office program's startup--particularly Word 2003? If
so, what is the procedure? Thank you. Jack Danniel

Thanks, Suzanne.

I have TweakUI. Where is the setting for it, specifically? I see
there is a controller for Word and one for Excel. Does the UI setting
nuke all of the panes in all Office programs? Thank you.
There's a setting for this in the UI, but if that doesn't work, get the Task
Pane Controller from

It has nothing to do with TweakUI, this is a UI macro specifically for
controlling the TaskPane in Word. Just follow the link.

I don't have Word 2003 installed yet, but I believe there is a setting
either in Tools | Options | View or in Tools | Customize | Options that
controls it.

There is indeed, but it is not 100% reliable (depending presumably on what
else there is on the PC). The task pane controller may still be necessary.

Very good...two options, one built into Word, one a freeware utility.
Thank you for replying, everyone. Jd
