My boss has an interesting problem. He doesn't know what he did but here's the thing: Every time he opens a new document in Word 03, the cursor is in the header. In order to get the cursor to the body of the document, he has to View/Header then close the header. Anyone know what this might be about? Currently, his wants to reinstall Word but shouldn't have to do that right? /g ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
