Default margins problems

I hope someone can help me. I am at my wits end. Everytime i type a new
document and look under print preview, it looks all left aligned. so i go
into page set up and margins and try to fix the margins but when i click okay
i get this message saying "increasing right margins causes last colums to
become too narrow in some sections having unevenly spaced columns". I haven't
done anything to the document - it is completely blank but this message keeps
on popping up. I tried to look under search - all file folders and typed
normal.dot but nothing shows up. PLEASE HELP! I have a major paper due
tomorrow!

Default margins problems

Does this occur in only one particular document? If yes, then
open the document, and click on Format | Columns | One | Apply
to: Whole document | OK. Even if "One" already appears to be
selected, click on it anyway.

Or does this occur in all new documents? If yes, then locate and
open your Normal.dot file as described in Method 1 in
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm . Click
on Format | Columns | One | Apply to: Whole document | OK. Even
if "One" already appears to be selected, click on it anyway. Type
a character or two and delete what you just typed. Save the
Normal.dot file and close it.
