This is clipped from an article by Jack Lyon which appeared in the
Editorium update:

There's just one problem: Word displays those two pages with the odd 
page on the left and the even page on the right--exactly the opposite of

what you'd see in a printed book. It's a little confusing, if you ask 
me. The workaround is to create a blank section page at the beginning of

your document and number it as page 0. Here's how:

1. Place your cursor at the very top of your document (CTRL + HOME).

2. Click "Insert > Break."

3. Under "Section break types," click "Odd page."

4. Click the OK button.

5. Click "Insert > Page Numbers."

6. Click the Format button.

7. Under "Page numbering," click "Start at."

8. In the "Start at" box, enter a zero.

9. Click the OK button.

10. Click the Close button.

Now when you display pages two up, you'll see odd pages on the right, 
where they belong.

Subject: Problem with two-page view in Word


This is a small but extremely irritating problem: When I go to a
two-page view in Word, page 1 is on the right and page 2 is on the left.
I'm sure that this didn't used to be the case, but I can't imagine what
control of preference I may have changed to accomplish this unexpected
(and
unnerving) right-to-left ordering of page view.

In the normal one-page view, page 1 is first and then page 2 is below
it.
