Default Cursor now appears at top of page despite default page setup

Hi, I run Word 2003 on XP. Without my making any changes in settings, my
cursor suddenly now appears (in Print Layout and all other views )at the very
top of the page instead of the default position of 1.4 inches from top.
Worked fine earlier today, now it doesn't. I opened my normal.dot template,
and within template, the cursor still appears in the proper default position
(1.4 " from top). But when opening a new document, the cursor is back at the
top. I am able to manually "enter" it down to the right spot, but it's a
slow down in my work flow. I've closed out Word, rebooted computer, did a
system restore, everything I could think of. Anybody have any ideas for
getting my cursor position back where it belongs?
