Hi
First, see the following aricle:
Elusive White Space (Where did my header and footer go?)
http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/WhiteSpace.htm
If that doesn't fix the problem, see
How to change the default settings for Word documents
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...alTemplate.htm
Hope this helps.

Suddenly "new blank document" has 0" top margin and I can't change it.
Deleted normal.dot and samr thing. Go into page layout and make 1" the
default but next time I open a doc, there's still no top margin. Help!
