End of first line jumps to the bottom of the page

In Word 2000, once I have the first line entered in the document at the top
of the page, the cursor jumps to the bottom of the page. This happens
whether I hit Enter or allow the text to wrap to the next line. I have to
work from the bottom of the page and hit Enter several times to align my text.

On the Layout tab of Page Setup, change the vertical alignment from
Justified to Top. If this is occurring in all documents, do this in a new
Blank Document (without making any other changes) and then click Default...
and answer Yes.
