Default zoom on opening

When I open a Publisher 2003 file it always opens at 48 zoom. This is too
small to read and I get tired of having to change it to 100. Is there any way
I can have file open at 100 zoom each time.

F9 is a keystroke away.

Get yourself a five button mouse... From Publisher's help
If you have a mouse with five buttons, you can zoom in on a particular area of
the page. Point to a corner of the area you want to zoom in on, and then hold
down the fifth mouse button while dragging diagonally until the rectangle
surrounds the area. To return to the previous zoom level, click the fifth mouse
button again.

Alternatively, you could try out Default Zoom from

Awesome tip! I didn't know that!

huh?

I have one of those (I think): the Microsoft Optical Intellimouse
(latest drivers for sure).

I would pay a handsome sum (a good cigar) to the person who can tell
me how to stop the "fifth" button (on the right side of the mouse) to
stop trying to move my page to a different place on my screen display.

Maybe there are some settings you
could change in Mouse Properties.

Nope. Been there, done that. I'm no beginner when it comes to
computers and configuring (or building) them.

But this one has me beaten.
