Thanks, that did it. However, it did not explain why it also defaulted to
the header. But, that is another issue.

I am using Word 2003 and can not find the options for setting up one's
initial page. Right now, my opening page is stuck with opening in the
header, which is annoying. I can not find where to change this. Any help
will be appreciated. Thanks
