How you correct the problem depends on which version of Word you have.
Unfortunately, you don't seem to know, and we can't see your screen from
here.

In Word 2003 or earlier, click on File | Page Setup | Layout tab |
Vertical alignment: Top | Apply to: Whole document | Default | OK.

In Word 2007, click on Page Layout | Marginns: Custom Margins | Layout
tab | Vertical alignment: Top | Apply to: Whole document | Default | OK.

If you are prompted to save changes to your global template when you
exit Word, say yes.
