Individual Settings

[Jeff J]

Is there a way to have the settings for one word document
like White Lettering/Blue Background only for one Word
Document instead of the setting affecting all Word
doucments? Happy New Year! Jeff J

Hi, Jeff,

That particular setting is either turned on for all documents or
turned off for all documents -- that's because the value is saved in
your registry, not in each document.

The same is true for all the settings on the View, General, and Edit
tabs of the Options dialog. There are settings on other tabs of that
dialog that apply to individual documents (the setting is saved in the
document) -- for example, "Print data only for forms" on the Print
tab.

While Jay is correct in his assertions, you may be able to get a measure of
what you want if the document is created from its own unique template and
*that template* contains the following macros:

Sub Autoopen()
Options.BlueScreen = True
End Sub
Sub Autoclose()
Options.BlueScreen = False
End Sub
Sub Autonew()
Options.BlueScreen = True
End Sub

While the document in question is open, you will have all your on screen
documents white on blue, but closing the document will revert to black on
white.
