Scratch that - you'd hardly want to be asked another question every time you call find-file. Maybe the thing to do is to add the function to find-file-hook, but I thiink by that time the mode function has been executed already, so the doc-view-mode-hook will not be run. But maybe you can call doc-view-goto-page directly. -- Nick "There are only two hard problems in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors." -Martin Fowler
