I'm using Word 2003.

When I begin a new document, the cursor is positioned inside the header. I
have to View->Header and then I can move the cursor down to the first line of
the page.

Any ideas on how I can fix this, so that for each new doc, the cursor begins
in the body of the doc?

Are you sure you are in the header?

Could it be that you accidentally clicked the space between two pages so
that the setting "White space between pages" has been turned off?

Hooray! Thanks, Lene; I changed that setting and it works correctly now.
