How do I get publisher 2007 to directly open to a blank page?
Is there a way to get publisher to open directly to a blank page rather than
the annoying "Publisher tasks" panel? There used to be a way to turn that feature off but I can't locate it in 2007.

In Publisher 2000 it is Tools, Options and uncheck "Use catalog at startup."

John,
I removed the check mark immediately after installation yet each time I start Publisher it opens a task window that I don't want it to open. That's what I want to prevent from happening. I just want it to open up with no windows (tabs) at all. I just want a blank page...period.

You can't keep it from appearing. It is a tear-off, you can minimize it to very
small and drag it to a less obtrusive part of your screen. Publisher will remember this setting the next time you open the application. If it seems not to want to move, expand the chevron and uncheck *format publication.* -- Mary Sauer http://msauer.mvps.org/ "Speedwagon" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the tip!
I guess it's just another one of those annoying "great ideas" MS has come up with. Each time they develop a new version of software they seem to take more and more customization away from users. They just don't get it do they? I want to make my software "my" software not their software with minor changes to the facade. I followed your suggestion but too be honest, I would still rather tear the page off than have to close it everytime I open Publisher (which is exactly what I do). Anyway, thanks again for the reply.
