Hi.

My Word software has been going crazy lately. First, it would not let me set the margins properly. No matter what I set the margins to in the "Page Setup" window, there would still be no top and bottom margins. Somehow it's now fixed! I have no idea what changed.

But now the cursor skips! Like I'll type something and hit Enter, and the cursor will jump to the end of the page INSTEAD of the NEXT line. I am attaching a screenshot of what happens.

Please let me know how I can fix this. Thanks!

[getting space - attachment deleted by admin]Which version of Microsoft Word are you using?

Have you tried restoring the defaults in the Page Setup by clicking the Defaults button? Maybe something has been done to the margins that is causing this to occur.

Sorry, it's 2003.

I did try default.. to no avail! The strange thing is that if I download a Word doc from the net and open the file, it'll DISPLAY completely normally!I'm guessing it has something to do with your template. Try starting Microsoft Word 2003 using the below command the /a OPTION will not load templates and uses default settings.

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\Winword.exe" /a

If after doing that you do not encounter any issues as I mentioend earlier it's likely an issue with your template. However, could also be a printer driver related issue.

Try fixing the template by doing the following in Word.
1. CLICK Tools and then Templates and Add-Ins
2. See if your Document Template is Normal.dot. If it's not click the Attach button and select Normal.dot
3. Click ok.

Let me know if this helps.
