How do i get the margins back onto a word file?

[Guest]

When i am in a word file my margins are gone and i cannot figure out how to
get them back displayed. I can click on the side on my paper and the margin
stuff pops up but i would like it visible again. (the margin information is
normally at the top of the document)

please help

Hard to tell whether you're talking about the ruler (View | Ruler) or the
header/footer (see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm).

Sorry I wasnt specific enough..

When i open a word file (any word doc.) at the top of the page, it used to
indicate the margins on the page and if i double clicked that I could change
the my margins through Page Setup. That bar is no longer there. It seems
like i have clicked every button to try to get it back but nothing is
working. I have changed the views, formats etc.
When I click to the right or left of the white page (blue area) It comes up
with the margin info...It is referred to as Page Setup. I would just like to
be able to see my margins etc. at the top of my word doc.

Thanks for your help...

This sounds to me a lot like the horizontal ruler. Are you sure you tried
View | Ruler?
