It depends on all sorts of things of course but if it's just the formatting
toolbar then try

Tools Customize Options (tab)
Check "Show Standard and Formatting on two rows"

I keep noticing that when I open up documents in Word, sometimes the
toolbars
are re-arranged. Sometimes they are right justified on the display so I
have
to move the toolbar so it's flush with the left side of the window.

What causes this? is there a way to stop it.
