Access to Word Automation Page layout view

My database currently has a system whereby a user can click a button and produce a estimate in word. It works by writing access form field data as custom document properties and at bookmarks. This works fine.

The document needs to have the path printed at the bottom of every document. I put the relevent Word field in the template footer and used my access code to save the document and update the fields. However, when the update occurs the document changes to normal view with the footer showing at the bottom of the screen.

Does anyone know how I can force Word to revert to page layout view (which all the users are used to)?

I hope the above makes sense. Any help much appreciated.

TIA
