restore down button not working

F

The page sizing button works in Word except that the vertical page is too
large for the computer screen. Maximizing the page works fine, but when I try
to hit the restore down button to make a smaller page, it produces a page
that is so large that I can't reach the bottom right hand corner with the
mouse to enable me to control the vertical size of the page. The horizontal
reducing function works fine, Every other program also works fine. It is just
MS Word that is malfunctioning. I may have clicked something that has caused
this, but I don't know what. I have closed and opened Word, and rebooted the
computer and nothing helps. What's a person to do.

Right click the Windows task bar and select cascade windows. This should
bring the size of the window down to a size where it can be manipulated.

If you run this macro, you should then be able to drag the Word window to
the desired size:

Sub ChangeWindowSize()

With ActiveWindow
.WindowState = wdWindowStateNormal 'restore window
.Width = 400
.Height = 400
.Left = 0
.Top = 0
End With

End Sub
