Normal.dot was and is fine. You've just discovered a new feature of Word
2003!
Tools Options View (tab)
Check "White space between pages" in the Print and Web Layout Options
section.
You can turn this off (or on) with an errant mouse click on your screen but
it is easier to turn off that way than it is to turn it back on. If you go
to the gray area between pages with your pointer, it will turn into a couple
of white blocks, one over the other. The tool tip is "Hide white space" or
"Show white space." See
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm.

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! What can I do to remedy?
