Sudden problem with headers in Word
Recently when I open a Word document, the cursor is in the header section. If
I click on "Show Headers" and close the options window, the cursor will then drop below the header to the normal starting position. In the page setup, margins are still set at 1" and header/footer is at .5. It is irritating to have to click "show headers" and close it out each time I begin a new document. Is there a way to fix this? |

Can you tell me how to get the cursor position to be in the body of a
document when it opens? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm -- Suzanne S.

It always is. It is not in the header though it may appear to you to be. Did

I did read the article. Maybe my situation is different but in my case, the
cursor doesn't appear to be in the header -- It is in the header. These particular documents open in a split screen with the header visible in the lower screen. The users run a macro which is supposed to paste text into the body of the document but if the cursor is in the header, it pastes to the wrong spot. I have not been able to figure out why some users have their cursor positioned in the body when the document is opened and others, opening the same document, have the cursor positioned in the header pane.
