Default My margins are missing

View | Ruler. (And note that that has nothing to do with being able to see
the margins.)

Hi,

Sorry for not being clear. Yes there is white space, I just cant see the
top margin ruler or the side margin rulers! All of sudden they just

went??
It doesnt matter if I open a old doc or a new blank one it still does not
show the rulers at the top or sides!

Ive also tried going into the different layouts Print, Web, Reading etc

but
that makes no difference neither.

I looked at my page setup and the margins are set at 2.54 Top&Bottom and
3.17 Left&Right.And i also have the white space box ticked!!!!!

Hope you can help. and thanks :-)

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.

that isn't it, what version of Word are we talking about?

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

Normal).
