Default Corrupt Normal.dot

Hi Impacter,

Opening Word 2003, the cursor is on the first line, no top margin. (Page
setup indicates margin setting is normal). Found out by Viewing Header,
closing it, cursor moves to normal position with top margin in place!!!
Then saved document as doc1.dot, deleted normal.dot and renamed doc1.dot
as normal.dot, but still no luck!

Tools/Options/View: there should be a check box about showing "white
space". Activate this. OR

Just click on the top edge of what you can see of the page.

Sometimes, it's easier to scroll/scan a document when the margins are
hidden. I like the feature, but if you don't know it's there it can be
disconcerting :-)
