MS Word 2013 Outline View

[mswmacroman]

I have recently learned about using the outline view, created a document at work for IT and at home created a document for personal business. Both work and home have Windows 7 64bit PCs. Work PC has MS Office 2010 and home PC has MS Office 2013.
The document at work always opens in the outline view, but the document at home always opens in print layout thus causing me to always change the view.
How can I set this home document to always open to outline view?

Word 2013 doesn't support saving the view (Page Layout, Draft, or Outline) with the document. This has changed from Word 2010.

MVP Jay Freedman has created a macro that saves the view with each document. Locate the SaveView2013.zip file at http://jay-freedman.info/.

This worked great, thanks so much, but what I don't understand is Microsoft's propensity for dumbing something down that worked so well in a previous version!!

I don't know why this was removed. I vaguely recall seeing an explanation, but I don't remember where. :-(
