How does that compare to pressing the ⌥ key and doing this?

Thanks! I didn't know that one.

If I'm not mistaken, the view settings from the last user will be applied when I open a document that I've received from a client. My macro would quickly adapt the view to my personal prefs.

Got it. The only Word docs I use are my own, so my preferences are already baked-in!

Nice use of AppleScript - it shows why sometimes KM isn't quite enough!
