10-28-06 When i click on insert, page numbers, the "position" defaults to
"bottom of page footer.
How do I change the default to "top of page header" so that I don't have to
change this each time.
I like for my numbers to print at the top right of the page rather than the
bottom.

You don't. But you can create a template that has the page numbers wherever
you want them; see

What part of "you don't" was not clear?
