I am using Word 2003 on Windows XP. I opened a Word attachment to my
email...the buttons for the different views are not visible! I opened
another Word document attachment (without closing the first one) and
the buttons *are* visible. Furthermore, the toolbars that are
activated are the same for the two documents. What checkbox/option do
I change to get the View buttons visible in the first document?

I forgot to add that the Zoom percentage field is also grayed out in
the document that doesn't have View buttons.

Sounds like the document may be opening in Reading Layout view? You can
press ESC to exit that view. Also, you may want to clear the "Allow starting
in Reading Layout" on the General tab of Tools | Options.

Close...it was Read-Only. When I saved a copy and unchecked Read-
Only, things went back to normal. Thanks...

Hmm, that wasn't what I would except. In other words, I don't think I was
very close... :-)

Actually, you should be able to modify a read-only document, although you'd
have to Save As in order to preserve the changes of course.
