[mso] Re: Word 2003 Print Layout View

Yup...it makes sense. You clicked the new 2003 "hide white space" area.

Just move your mouse up to the top, or anywhere between the pages, and your
cursor will turn into an up/down arrow like a spin control. Just click and
your headers/footers and extra top/bottom margins will return to view.

This was a new feature that was added, albeit not documented well...so
something people click in that area and don't know what happened.
Personally, I love it when proofing long docs cos' it cuts off the excess
area you don't need to proof so you have much less scrolling. But it CAN be
quite confusing if you don't know it's there.

Subject: [mso] Word 2003 Print Layout View

Suddenly last week, the top margin on a new blank document, when viewed
in print layout view, disappeared. So instead of seeing the entire
"page" including the top, like I used to, I have the cursor blinking at
the very top, and the top of the page appears cut off. If I click on
View Header, I can see that area, but I used to be able to see it
without having to view the header. Is there a way I can set it back to
how it was?

I hope this makes sense, I'm glad to provide more detail if necessary.
Thanks,
Elise
