Using Word 2007. When I first click on Word the blank page comes up with
the cursor in the top center of the page. Why is this, and how can I make it appear on the left margin to begin a document? thanks |

Probably you have centered alignment applied to the empty paragraph
mark in the Normal.dotm template. With the cursor in that empty paragraph, right-click and choose Paragraph to open the dialog. Change the alignment to Left, click the Default button at the bottom of the dialog, and confirm the change. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm for a couple of other ways to fix it. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

FWIW, Jay and I and many other MVPs are already working the Answers forums.
Although it is not ideal, you can download an NNTP bridge that allows you to use *some* newsreaders to access the forums. For more, see https://connect.microsoft.com/Micros...?wa=wsignin1.0. Thunderbird is one of the targeted clients, and apparently some users are using it successfully. -- Suzanne S.

I believe Thunderbird is one of the applications with which the NNTP Bridge
does not work so well. It seems fine with Windows Live Mail other that the HTML formatting issue. -- Hope this helps.

That was my impression, but I was basing my statement on this in the
referenced document: "Officially, we intend for the end user to use one of the following NNTP newsreaders to connect to the Bridge at a time: Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, or Forte Agent." Additionally, I did see a Google Groups thread in which a poster claimed to be using Thunderbird 3.0 without problems. -- Suzanne S.
