SUMMARY
In Microsoft Word for Windows, there is no internal command for the newly-implemented Full Screen Mode. This article contains a macro you can run to switch to Full Screen editing mode.

MORE INFORMATION
You may want to assign this macro to a toolbar button, a keyboard combination, or to a menu. See pages 767-768 in the &quot;Microsoft Word for Windows User's Guide&quot; for more information.

In a macro editing window, type the following macro text. The suggested name for this macro is &quot;FullScreen&quot; (without the quotation marks).

Sub MAIN ToolsOptionsView .FullScreen = 1 End Sub The following macro can be used to toggle the Full Screen option in the Options dialog (if Full Screen is active, this macro disables the Full Screen option, and vice versa):

Sub MAIN Dim dlg As ToolsOptionsView GetCurValues dlg dlg.Fullscreen = Abs(dlg.fullscreen -1) 'reverse the current value ToolsOptionsView dlg End Sub
