All my new documents open with the cursor at the header location.

Using Word 2003
In print layout viewAll my new documents open in print layout view with the
cursor at the very top of the page, about 1/8 from the top. Top margin is
set to 1.0". In print preview the location appears to be at 1.0. I can put
the cursor in the right place on the page by going to View: Header and Footer
and clicking Switch between header & footer.

I rarely use a header/footer. I want the default page to open with the
cursor at the margin I select. How do I get the default to do so.

Thank you so much. Not sure why I had trouble finding this answer in the
WORD help index. Appreciate your other tutorials, too.
