Word opens file at 116% instead of 100%

[Spoonman77]

I have this Word file that opens up at 116% everytime. I go to View-Zoom and change it to 100%. The document now looks great and I save it. When I open it back up, it is at 116% again. Any ideas?

I was able to change from the default 100% using the View menu --> Zoom command...
By using the scrollbox to change the zoom %, and then saving before closing... LOL - I now also have a document which opens at 116% and does not wish to change back... Perhaps you will have better luck than I did.

The view default is usually connected with Word - not a document. So if you want your document to open at 100%, set it for 100%, close it and exit Word.
