How do I make the borders more than 31 points?

[Guest]

I need to know how to move a border over more (In Word 2003) so that it is
further away from the edge of the page. Anyone know how to do this? It only
allows me to go to 31 points.

You have to change the "Measure from" box to "Text". The measurements will
then control how far the border is from the boundaries of the text area (as
set by the margins).
