Stuck in Columns Format
I seem to be stuck in the "columns" format. I cannot get back to the regular
Word document defaults. I've tried page set-up - will not let me change anything. I've tried to remove Word and reinstall it - no luck. The only way I was able to use it is to select the 1-column format and change the margins. Now I can't even do that, I have to open a document, delete everything in it, write my document and save it. HELP -- Frustrated As Usual |

It sounds to me as if you have saved some settings in your Normal.dot
template that should not be there. If this is correct, you will find help in this article: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Barb" wrote: I seem to be stuck in the "columns" format.
