I have been going at this for 8 hours. ( I run Office
2003 Pro)

I have some HTML code that my Web Designer created for I
can do a mailing to my group.

He sent me the email and it looks GREAT. I Right click on
the email choose VIEW SOURCE, COPY the HTML CODE, OPEN
Notepad, Paste the Code in, Save File in NOTEPAD, save
the file as TESTHIS.HTM to the Desktop, Open the file on
the desktop to check it launches IE and Looks GREAT, I
load WORD - CLICK OPEN - CHOOSE the TESTHIS.HTM file, I
get prompted to open this as HTML FILE I say OK, it then
LOOKS LIKE COMPLETE crude. The margins are all screwed
up, the text is all bunched togther and it grew in size.

I have been going at this for almost 8 hours with no
sucess.

Does anyone have any idea, please???

Everything is out of sync because your using a attempting to use a WORD
PROCESSING software to view web pages designed to be viewed with an INTERNET
BROWSER software.

The very simple solution is to stop vieweing web pages in Word.
