AFAIK, there is no conflict between Office 2000 and Windows XP, but a new OS
generally means a new printer driver, and a different printer driver often
makes a difference.

Thanks again for your help. Unfortunately it's still not working.

Is Office 2000 usually compatable with Windows XP? Just that it was

working
fine on Windows 98, but not since I've got this new computer with Windows

XP.

Try this: go to Format | Columns and click the box for One (even if it
already appears to be selected). Also, another user reported getting

this
message because the "From text" setting for line numbering had been set

too
large.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

If I ignore the message then the text is cut off around 9cm before the

right
hand edge of the page - this is how it looks both in print preview and

when
the document is printed.

Hello. I've recently installed Office 2000 on my new computer

running
Windows
XP. Since I've done this I've been having problems with landscape

mode
in
page setup.

When I try to put a page into landscape orientation, I get the

following
error message: 'One or more margins are set outside the printable

area
of
the
page. Choose the Fix button to increase the appropriate margins.'

If I choose Fix, the right margin is then set to 9.32 cm, leaving

a
large
space between the end of the text and the right hand edge of the

paper. If
I
choose Ignore, then in print preview the text is cut off after the

9.32 cm
mark, so there is still a large space.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
