WinWord: Page Layout View Remains After Canceling Hyphenation
'Article ID: Q79036

Creation Date: 09-DEC-1991

Revision Date: 09-SEP-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Word for Windows, choosing the Cancel button before the Hyphenation command is complete returns the document in page layout view, regardless of the view you were working in prior to choosing the Hyphenation command. Choosing Hyphenation from the Tools menu switches the active document to page layout view. After the command finishes hyphenating the document, it returns to the starting view (draft or normal).

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the versions of Microsoft Word for Windows listed above. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

Steps to Reproduce Problem


 * 1) Type a few sentences requiring hyphenation.
 * 2) From the View menu, choose Normal. From the Tools menu, choose Hyphenation.
 * 3) Press the OK button to begin the Hyphenation command. Press ESC, or choose the Cancel button in the Hyphenation dialog box.

Your document still appears in page layout view.
