Well, we've already established, I think, that it's your rulers (not your
margins) that are actually missing. View | Ruler should bring them back. If
you don't see the vertical ruler, make sure that check box is checked on the
View tab of Tools | Options. And note that if you had text boundaries
displayed, you'd get a visual representation of your margins, which I would
feel very much at sea without.

Hi Cybertaz,
I have white space yes. I just cant see the margin rules at the top or
sides!!!
I checked in Page set up and my margins are set to 2.54 (Left&Right) and
3.17 (top&Bottom).
This happens even if I open a old document or new doc!!
Cheers,

Just so I'm clear - you're saying that no white space is visible on
either
of the 4 edges of the page when in Print Layout View *or* Print Preview.
Is
this one specific doc or with any doc including new ones? Your text runs
from edge to edge.
Before trying anything else you might just take a look in FilePage
Setup to
make sure your margins aren't set to 0. If there are valid values,
something
else is definitely wrong - especially if the side margins aren't showing
up.
There is no provision for hiding them such as the White Space feature
does
for Top & Bottom.

Are you in Print Layout view (View Print Layout)?
The margins are not shown if you are in Normal view (View
Normal).
