Automatic hyphenation default

[salgolf]

I have been struggling with this to no avail since I began using Office 2008, specifically Word. In Word for a PC, one can set automatic hyphenation as the default. I cannot figure out how to do this in Office 2008. Every time I look for this answer, my question is misunderstood. The answer is always "go to tools>hyphenation>automatically hyphenate document". That's just fine for that one session. It does not create a default. I want Word to always be in automatic hyphenation just as one can set it on a PC. I don't know why this is so difficult but I can't find an answer. There must be one.

 

Thanks for whatever help you can give. It must be a fairly simple answer that I'm somehow missing.
