Many thanks to Laurel Hickey, Dan Goldstein, Kenneth Nuckols, Cindy
Hudson, Lisa Roth and especially Diane Evans.
Dan: you're right, as I use Word more and more <sigh>, learning the
basics of templating would be very useful. If only that I learn how
*not* to overwrite Normal.dot.
On to the solution: I believe the problem was a combination of
accidentally changing Normal.dot, and the white space setting mentioned
by both Ken and Cindy. What I finally did was replace Normal.dot with
the file sent by Diane. That didn't fix it... until I opened up Reveal
Formatting, reset a few things to default--that I had previously set to
default from other screens--and viola! Word decided that I really did
wish to see the entire page.
Very peculiar behavior that I still don't fully understand, but at least
it's fixed.
Thanks Techwr-L!
