Printing Doc w/o Tracked Changes

[silvrwoman]

Hi. Many times I need to print many Word Documents at once - thus, I like to select the bunch of documents and use the right-click print method so I don't have to open up and print each document one-by-one.
However, I'm running into this problem - the tracked changes/mark-ups are printing. Besides opening up each doc one-by-one and clicking "Accept all changes" on each doc, is there anyway I can print many docs at once without it printing the mark-ups/tracked changes?

Thanks!

Hi silvrwoman,

You could set Word's display option to 'Final' on the 'Review' tab.

[silvrwoman]

Yes, but I'd have to do that with each document, right? Is there anyway to set that option as default so I don't have to open each document to print a bunch? Thanks!

Hi silvrwoman,

If you add the following code to your Normal template's 'ThisDocument' module, all documents will open in the 'Final' view

Thank you! That seems to work perfectly!

Actually, I thought it was working but now it's saying "Run-time error '91': Object variable or With block variable not set

What line is highlighted when you get that error? Is it coded exactly the same as what I posted? Have you tried re-starting Word?

[silvrwoman]

"With ActiveWindow.View" is highlighted. I've copied and pasted exactly what you posted. Yes, I've tried restarting Word. I have Word 2007 if that makes a difference.

Thanks again - I appreciate all your help with this.

Hi silvrwoman,

I'm unable to reproduce that error. The code works fine in both Word 2003 & 2010, so it should work in 2007. It would indeed be extraordinary for a sub to fail on the 'With ActiveWindow.View' line in any version. I've used it in the past for Word 2000 & 2007 also.

This all seems to suggest there's a fault in your Word installation. Perhaps a repair (Word Options|Resources|Diagnose) will help.
