[AccessD] Open Word Document

Bit late into this topic - sorry.

I think this is caused by Word (and probably other apps.) changing docs to
use your default printer. If you open a doc created or modified by someone
else who has a different default printer, the app. has to reformat it. But
if you are opening and close Word docs "all day long" it does not have to
change the printer setting more than once.
