Default Header and Footer 'margins'

As Bob says, those settings are now on the Layout tab. At first glance, it
might be hard to imagine why MS would have moved a margin setting away from
the Margins tab, but perhaps it seemed reasonable in that the "Different
first page" and "Different odd and even" settings are on that tab as well.

Greetings,
I'm new to Word 2003 and am seeing something a bit different than it was

in
Word 2000. When I bring up the Page Setup box and select the Margins tab,

I
get margins for top, bottom, left, right, and even Gutter size and

location.
If I remember Word2000 correctly, it gave me the ability to set the Header
and Footer positions (I think they were for 'how large is the area", but
they might have been "how far from the edge does it start').

I'm finding in Word 2003 I actually have to use the mouse and play
click/drag for my header/footer sizes, and when I highlight them, the
boundary lines (dashed) show the footer starting at the edge of the paper
and I can't click/drag it to move it up.

Sooo... is there a way for me to numerically set Header/Footer height

and
location with respect to the top/bottom of the page???

Thanks,
Shane
