Place the cursor outside of the endnotes area, but inside the section
where the endnotes reside (in other words: in an "ordinary" text
paragraph). Then you can access File | Page Setup.

Note: Switching to Normal view (View | Normal) makes it easier to
determine if there are any section breaks.

Hi Stefan:

Thank you for responding. The only problem with checking the
vertical
alignment is that I cannot access Page Layout once I'm on the
endnote page.
When you insert an endnote and you get to the section where you have
to type
the reference, Page Layout is not accessible. Do let me know if you
have any
more ideas... Thanx1

For the section where the endnotes are positioned, verify that the
Vertical Alignment is set to "Top" (File | Page Setup, Layout
tab).

I have a large document (approx. 100+ pages) that I have
inherited
from a
client, which seems to have several coding issues. Most annoying
is
the fact
that when I insert endnotes, they begin in the middle of the
page,
and not at
the top. It was as if the page margins changed to a 5" top
margin,
only since
endnote pages are generated automatically, one cannot change
margins. If
anyone has any insight on this issue, I would greatly appreciate
it!
