in Word, change cursor from mid-page to beginning

[barneysmom]

Word opens with the cursor in the middle of the page.

How do I make it start closer to the top of the page?

I can't find anything in Help,
Backspace will not move it.

How do I make it start closer to the top of the page?

I can't find anything in Help,
Backspace will not move it.

Go to File > Page Setup > Layout. I think you'll find that the Vertical
Alignment box is set to Center. Change it to Top and then click the Default
button at the bottom of the dialog.
