Problem with Normal.dot or formatting???
Word 2003 does *not* default to this view. Most likely you inadvertently
clicked in the wrong place.

Fantastic! I knew the answer to this nagging issue would be simple - that
doesn't make it simple to determine! Since installing Office 2003 a
couple
of days ago, I have been plagues with this annoying problem. I wonder why
MS
would have Word 2003 default to this? Oh well, no matter now - thanks,
you've earned the Tylenol Remedy of the Day Award.

Open Word, put your cursor at the very top of the page. Cursor should
turn
into an up and down arrow with "Show white space". Click. Close Word.
Re-open Word. Is it all better?

Hi, My problem is that when I open Word 2003, or a new document etc,
the
cursor is right at the top edge of the page instead of under the margin.
There does not appear to be a margin at the top and bottom of the page.
I
have tried using and old document and deleting all the text and saving
it as
normal.dot and deleting the old one, but when I open a new doc is has
exactly the same problem
This makes me think that mayeb it is a
format
setting or style or something that applies itself to all new documents
as
soon as they open (or maybe I am talking rubbish). I am very frustrated
have
spent ages trying to put this right. It was working okay but I think I
just
hit a few wrong keys when typing a letter once and got this problem
appear.
I have Win XP Pro and Word 2003. When I use word under a different
user,
it works fine, but different users have a different normal.dot. I have
tried
copying the normal.dot from a different user and still I get the same
problem HELP! PLEASE!
Thanks,
Wayne
