How do I recapture "words" original settings (to display margins)

I was trying to create a resume, and I decided to try various options such as
adjusting margins, changing fonts, adding "bullets", etc. **Keep in mind
that 1) I am a novice regarding various programs, but I am not afraid to
try, (2) My friends that are "tech savvy" have better things to do than give
me a brief "tutorial" each time I need help!

However, by the time I finished, (frustrated as usual) the margins were no
longer visable and the page did not look like it originally did. I don't
know what button that I may have touched that made it disappear.

HELP!

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm for one possibility.
Also, it may be that you've switched into Normal/Draft view; reselect Print
Layout.

One quick way to reset Word's formatting defaults is to delete normal.dotm
or normal.dot (depending on which version of Word you're using), and let
Word create a new one (which it will do automatically).
