Default Resizing a header

Toggle non-printing characters on (Ctrl+Shift+8) and see if there are
paragraph marks in the header that are making it arbitrarily tall.

If not, then choose File - Page Setup - Margins tab (assuming you're using
Word 2003 or earlier), and see if the Top Margin is set to something above
1". In the Layout tab, make sure the From edge: settings for the Header are
set to .5".

I am currently having trouble in resizing a header. I orginally had a
header
that was its standard size, 1/2 inch; however, the header is now about 4
inches. The beginning of all my documents are at the middle of the page.
I
checked Microsoft Office Help and I could not find anything. Any help
would
be much appreciated.

Thanks
