Page Setup Default Issue

You do this by creating a template with the margins you want and using that
template when you want those margins. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...platePart1.htm

If you really want half-inch margins "most of the time," then you can
customize Normal.dot to have these margins. You will still be able to access
Page Setup to change them as desired. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...alTemplate.htm

My DEAREST Jezebel,

You are a godess!!! I previously subitted this question a little
differently & the responces were not even close.... Your answer, is very
definate, exact steps to correct the issue & I am VERY greatful to you!!!
I
am not worthy of your knowladge (modified from mike myers "Wayne's World
Movie)...

Thank you so very much!

PS. How would you reccomend I should setup a better way to (most of the
time) set my borders to .5" all the way around??? If you don't mind me
taking advantage of your vast knowladge with I have you??

It sounds like you've created a macro called FilePageSetup to automate
the
function. This macro is running in place of the built-in command. For a
permanent fix, find the macro and delete it or rename it. For a
work-around,
go to Tools Macros. Select 'Word Commands' from the Macros In list,
then
select FilePageSetup from the command list -- this will run the built-in
command.

Alternatively, set up separate templates for each of the page setups you
commonly use: then you don't need to worry about it at all.

As I use the "page setup" button, my page automaticaly changes to a
template
version I created. I usually use this template most often..... But
now I
have forgotten how to terminate/change the "page setup automatic"
function.... The problem seems to be that now Word will not "OPEN
PAGE
SETUP" it simply changes it without showing me the "PAGE SETUP MENU
BOX".
I
have search everywhere in Words help menu's, this section of the "Word
Page
Layout Decussion Group" before
finely writting this question????

I would like to contionue to use this format, however in the instances
where
I need
to alter the Margins, without getting the "PAGE SETUP MENU BOX" to
show
itself, I am stuck having no other options!! I would like to change
layouts
at my own descression...

Help please!
