Microsoft Word will not give me a second page to type on

[confused]

When I am typing a document and get to the end of the page it goes back to
the start of that page and continues to type. If I type more than one page
it disappears. How can I change it to go to a second page etc. In the word
file I use at work it automatically goes to a second page. So I am confused.

Does this occur in only one particular document? If yes, then
open the document, and click on Format | Columns | One | Apply
to: Whole document | OK. Even if "One" already appears to be
selected, click on it anyway.

Or does this occur in all new documents? If yes, then locate and
open your Normal.dot file as described in Method 1 in
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/BlankDocNotBlank.htm . Click
on Format | Columns | One | Apply to: Whole document | OK. Even
if "One" already appears to be selected, click on it anyway. Type
a character or two and delete what you just typed. Save the
Normal.dot file and close it.
