Cursor Position - Wod 2003

[Bernice]

When I open a new document the cursor is on the first
line of the page (at the very top). Page setup appears
to be normal with margin & heading settings. What
setting do I need to change/check so that the cursor
starts further down the page? It's as if Word is not
recognising the margin or heading settings.

Hi Bernice

Sounds like you have the option to show 'white space between pages' (Tools >
Options > View) unchecked.

Anything similar in earlier Word? (My Word 2k doesn't have such an option).

Are you in Normal view? That view doesn't show the entire page, just the
document body.

Tools/Options select tab view and select "white space
between pages (print view only).
