It is not necessary to open Normal.dot for this. Just change the
setting in
Page Setup in a new blank document (without making any other Page
Setup
changes) and click Default..., then answer Yes.

Open the Normal template (as described at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/apperrors/...ocNotBlank.htm) and then
do
the following: On the File menu, click Page Setup. Click the
Layout
tab. Make sure that the "Vertical alignment" is set to "Top". Save
and
close the file. Repeat for existing documents affected by the
problem.

A colleague was having problems with a Word document where the
header
was taking half the page. There was only 1 or 2 lines in the
header
but yet it would not size down. No matter what I try, the
header
will
not size down, and in some cases it actually gets bigger and
takes
the
whole page!
This problem has now migrated to my Word 2003 installation.
When I
create a new document (blank), the cursor ends up in the middle
of
the
page. The header height size defaults to half the page, and
there's
NO
way to size it down.
Any ideas, on how to fix this?
Thanks.
