I have Word 2007 installed on 2 computers, both running Windows 7 Home
Premium. In one I can display margins; in the other I cannot. How/where do I turn 'display margins' on?? OldlEd |

Word 2007 Margins
If you are referrring to the top and bottom margins, either move the mouse
cursor to the top of the page until the cursor turns into vertically opposed arrows and a tip "Double click to show white space" appears or, click on the Office button and then on Word Options and then on Display and check the box for "Show white space between pages in Print Layout view" -- Hope this helps, Doug Robbins - Word MVP Please reply only to the newsgroups unless you wish to obtain my services on a paid professional basis.

Word 2007 Margins
This is not the solution!!!
I want to 'see' the margins, especially in a new, blank document. This happens for one of my Word 2007 installation but not for the other. OldEd "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ...

This did not help; see my earlier reply. These FAQs apply to earlier
versions. OldEd "Pamelia Caswell via OfficeKB.com" u43222@uwe wrote in message news:a245df0392a41@uwe...

The article in question has been updated for Word 2007, but I think what you
are asking for is "Text boundaries," which displays the margins and other text boundaries as a dotted line. That is found at Office Button | Word Options | Advanced: Show document content: Show text boundaries. -- Suzanne S.

Thank You!! That worked. That option is misplaced. Should be under 'Display'
not 'Advanced.' OldEd "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

There are many options under Advanced that should be under Display;
apparently the designers didn't want to "clutter" Display with options they thought few users would use. -- Suzanne S.
