Hi Cindy, let me amplify what Lissi said. Under the file menu, just hit the
alt key arrow up to page settings, shift tab to paper size, arrow down to
legal , tab to length arrow uop to twenty-two, tab to whole document, tab to
O K and hit i to ignore Word's complaint about the margins. Tom

Dear Cindy,
If I understand my latest transfusion of computer knowledge correctly, you go to edit, and page or paper, not the margins, and lengthen it to 22. I'm still practicing so my explanation is insufficient, but however it operates, it's fixed Bonnie Prince Charlie's page problems at last!
Always with love,
Lissi
