Default How to change settings for when one opens a page

I am using Word 2003 and can not find the options for setting up one's
initial page. Right now, my opening page is stuck with opening in the
header, which is annoying. I can not find where to change this. Any help
will be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks, that did it. However, it did not explain why it also defaulted to
the header. But, that is another issue.

It doesn't default to the header; the header is suppressed. If you don't
have text boundaries displayed, you wouldn't necessarily realize this (since
the whole page looks the same and margins are not defined), but unless your
insertion point was in a dotted box labeled Header (which is displayed even
if you don't have text boundaries displayed), it was not in the header.

It isn't showing the header, it is simply not showing the top part (white
space) of the page. This can happen with a stray mouse click and is a sticky
setting, one that continues until you change it.
