Default Header size reduction with no text -- how to reduce?

Looks like you didn't scroll down far enough to see the original reply. On
the Layout tab of Page Setup, choose Top under "Vertical alignment."

Suzanne,

I have the same problem with Word in 2003. Where is the vertical
alignment
you are talking about? Every new file I open has this issue.

Thanks for your help
Lenny

Another big thanks for the info Suzanne. This problem was driving me
crazy.
My problem also ended up being the vertical alignment.

news Thanks Suzanne. The information you gave fixed my problem too. It
was the
vertical allignment setting also. These little items are so
frustrating
when
you can't solve it. Thanks for taking the trouble of posting your
advice.

Press Ctrl+* or click the Show/Hide ¶ button on the Standard
toolbar
to
display nonprinting characters. Chances are you've got extra
empty
paragraphs (indicated by ¶) in the header. Alternatively, on the
Layout tab
of Page Setup, make sure that the vertical alignment is set to
Top.

A mystery header is so large it is displacing text, leaving a 4
inch
white
area on the page. There is no text in the header. How can I
reduce
it to
normal dimensions? Thanks!
