Default header margins...help!

If you would like to send me a sample document, with a description of what
you're trying to achieve, perhaps I can fix it and return it.

What do you mean when you say "but that seems to stop working after

working
in the document"?

ok. let me try and clarify a little better. i have a set header.

yes,
that
doesn't move. but the start of a new page (2nd page and on) moves

lower
than
what i have the first page set to start at (underneath the header). i
have
tried the "first page different" route, but that seems to stop working
after
working in the document. i am working with word 2003. i guess it has
nothing to do with the header or the table, but where the pages start

in
the
layout. the rulers on the side of the page won't let me adjust

(manually)
the very top of the page.

i'm sorry for being unclear before. but i think this describes my

problem
a
bit better. also, pardon me for not completely knowing/using the
microsoft
jargon.

thanks!

It might have to do with your having any content in a first-page

header
compared to a second page header.

Note there are page headers and table headers. They serve similar
purposes
but are very different animals.

A table header is one or more rows at the beginning of a table that

are
repeated when the table breaks over one or more pages.

It might help if we were sure which kind of header you are talking

about.
Not sure what the scrolling part of your table refers to, either.

Finally, which version of Word? Word has changed its table structures

in
the
last few releases.

imported table from excel.
scrolls through the pages as necessary to create more pages.
header includes top part of table.

do the headers automatically move down as each page goes along?

i've
set
the 1st page differently so that the 2nd page would line up

correctly
after
scrolling. but now, i'm onto the 3rd page and the scrolling

portion of
the
table is set lower. this has seemed to be the case as the pages

roll
on.
how do i set it so the table starts at the same place on each page?

i guess this might not have anything to do with the header margins,

but
the
table instead.
