Occassionally, in the middle of a mult-page document, the margin at the top
of a page may change "all by itself". e.g. I am currently re-aranging a 6
page document.
Page 1-4 all allow me to start text on line 1, but when I moved the bottom
paragraph of page 4 to page 5, it skipped me all the way down to line 12.
When I backspace the text, it goes from line 12 p5 to line 52 p4. If I hit
enter again to move it back to p5, it automatically takes it to line 12.
This is probably a pretty stupid question, but this has been happening to me
for years. ANy ideas? Thanks

On the offending page, look at File>Page Setup>Layout>Vertical Alignment and
see that it is set to top.

Thanks for the tip. I did as you suggested and the verticle allignment on the
offending page was set set to "top". No change in the problem.
What else can I try?
Thanks.

Greg,
I went back and changed the"apply to" from "whole document" to "this
section" and that seemed to work. Thanks for your help.
