Where have the tops of pages gone in Word 2003?
Like it says in the subject the the 'header' part of each page in Word
2003 is no longer there, by default now. In other words, whatever I type or place first on every page shows as if there's no header margin whatsoever...(???) However, if I open a document that isn't like that, well, it still isn't like that, but any *new* document is. Um... I haven't changed any settings in any particularly unusual way *as far as I know*. Does anyone know what's causing the problem, and - most importantly - how to fix it? Many thanks in advance, AK-540 |

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View | check the "White space
between pages" box | OK. AK-540 wrote: Like it says in the subject the the 'header' part of each page in Word 2003 is no longer there, by default now.

I'm having the same problem - upper and lower margin settings appear to have
no impact on the way that the pages look in the "print layout" view, or in the way that they print. All text spans from top paper margin to lower paper margin with no blank space above upper text or below lower text. Looks crummy and is unacceptable for documents. I've looked all over "page setup" and "start setup" to find a way to fix, but have been unsuccessful. Have looked other places too - there's gotta be a way to fix this!!! Thanks - hope someone knows what is happening and can advise a fix. "AK-540" wrote: Like it says in the subject the the 'header' part of each page in Word 2003 is no longer there, by default now.
