CAN'T CONTROL HEADER HEIGHT
Word 2003/XP
Dang, I just cant figure this one out. I have a document sent to me by email that has a header 1¾ in height. There are only 3 lines of text in the header (Arial 8), so there is too much space between the header text and the body of the document. Normally, I would just drag the bottom margin of the header up in Print Layout View to close the space, but the bottom border either: 1. snaps back to the 1¾ high mark after I drag the border and then release 2. appears to merge the entire body of the text into the header I cannot see anything in the space below the header text and the bottom margin of the header. No data, no formatting. Ive turned on reveal formatting, hide/show formatting toggle, but it just appears to be blank space. How can I make this header an appropriate height!? Thanks for ideas. -- William |

CAN'T CONTROL HEADER HEIGHT
To: William,
In the Page Setup menu (File - Page Setup), under the "Margins" tab, check the values of "From Edge" & "Header" (and "Top" while you're at it). I suspect that might be the cause.
