It sounds like you had Columns at one point and changed it back to a single
column. Even if you didn't, try going to Format/Columns and in the Presets click "One", even if you see "1" in the Number of Columns. What you are really looking for is the section of the "Equal Column Width" option at the bottom which is disabled. By clicking "One" in the Presets this will select the option if necessary. The Equal Column Width option is what allows the column width of your text (even if if is a single column) to automatically adjust to your page width and margins.

If it occurs on all new documents then you need to make this change on your
Normal template. If you need help with making this change then here's an article that will guide you through the necessary steps: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm Note that the title may not appear to be applicable (it is even though it looks blank, your Normal template has been modified with the Columns definition) and the Methods provided are applicable.
