I have tried every suggestion on this forum to correct the lack of white
space issue in word 2003 to NO avail! Every new document in print layout view
opens without the white space.

Has anyone else experienced this issue; if so, have you discovered the
solution?

Thanks for all the great advice!

If you have gone to Tools Options View and checked the box for
"White space between pages", and that doesn't stay checked through a
shutdown and restart of Word, then Word is failing to update the value
of an entry in the registry.

The fix for that is to delete the key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\W ord\Data

according to the directions under "If you have never edited the
Registry before" at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm and then
restart Word to create a new factory-default key.

Word 2003 has a bad habit of randomly losing settings stored in the Word
Data key in the registry. Renaming/deleting the data key as suggested by Jay
often works ... for a while, but the problem usually returns. For those
settings that habitually fail to stick, you can force the issue with
autoopen and autonew macros in the normal template. In this instance add the
line

ActiveWindow.View.DisplayPageBoundaries = True

to both such macros and the problem will go away. See the relevant section
at http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm
