Normal view changed

I have word 2003 SP3 (probably with 2007 reader). A few months ago my normal
view changed. The ruler shows 8-1/2 widtth page, but text go way beyond
8-1/2 (to end of window). Reading Pane view and print view are fine.

I want the Normal view to wrap text at the right margins. I don't like
Print view because it doesn't show the Breaks like the Normal view. Other
people at work have the normal view works the way I want.

I recently got a document from antoher person at work. the document in
Normal view on his PC is fine, when I opened the document the Normal view is
like I described above..

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

On the Tools menu, click Options. Click the View tab. Clear the option to
wrap text to the document window, and click OK.

Half the problem solved. Why does the window View extend beyond the ruler?
The ruler is 8 1/2 inches and is only 2/3 of the window view. The right side
of my window is all white..

This is because the ruler is no longer than the width of the paper (as
specified in File | Page Setup). If you want an accurate display of your
page, use Print Layout view instead of Normal view.
