Hi, Tim,

Here is something else to try along with draft view.

Click alt-H then G and you will be at the "Styles Set" submenu. Hit <Enter>
and you can arrow up and down a list of styles. Choose Windows 2003 by
hitting <Enter>. I understand that this returns the appearance to what was
present in Office 2003 and may work better.

This change is only temporary, so will revert to the default style for each
new document. I know in Office 2007 you could go back into the "Style Set"
submenu after choosing a style and set it to the default, but I can't find a
way of doing this in Office 2010.

Give it a bash and see if it helps.



Take care,

Gerry ellis

If you don?t know where you?re going,
How will you know when you get there?

Thanks Donal  will try draft view.

Unfortunately, switching away  from Windows isn't an option  in my
situation.

Try view draft tim.  Turd 2010 and jaws 12 were among the main reasons I
stopped using windows.  Incidentally, I'm reliably informed by sighted
friends and colleagues that the ribbon bar is as awful for them as for us.
