Carolyn...you posted this same question to other groups this last week and
MANY people have given you suggestions, including me, about how you should
check the printer driver.

Yet rather than answering those folks who have been trying to help you, you
post the same question to new group. Realize that many of us work in these
same groups, so we see these duplicate posts.

Rather than just going to another group and asking again, hoping for better
answers, I'd suggest you go back to the group that has been trying to help
you and answer those posts. Tell them what you have tried and try the other
suggestions. 

This problem is usually a print driver problem, as we've explained. If you
don't know how to upgrade a print driver or download a new one, then ASK.
Don't ignore those folks trying to help you!

Subject: [mso] MS Word Query

Hello
I am hoping someone can solve a mystery for me.

I have a document in MS Word 2000 that I want to place a page border around.

I went to the format menu and selected Borders and Shading then selected the
page border tab. Now I just wanted a plain border so clicked on the box
option.

when the document is in Print Layout you can see the whole border, but when
you go to print preview the bottom line of the border is missing.

Now if I selected one of the art borders this doesn't happen.

Can anyone help me as to what needs to happen so the bottom of the border
shows in print preview and also prints when I print the document.
currently my page is set as A4 and the border settings say 24pt for top,
bottom, left and right.

thanks
Carolyn
