I have accidentally changed the default margin settings and cannot change
them back. does anyone know what the defaults are?
 
I believe they are 1-1/2" L&R and 1" T&B but could be mistaken. See
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/AppErrors/BlankDocNotBlank.htm to get a
pristine "blank document" but note that you do not want to erase your old
one in case you have other customizations you want.

What happens when you go into header/footer view and try to insert AutoText
like the Filename?
