= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Word version 5.0, the top and bottom margins can be absolutely positioned in a document by specifying a negative top and/or bottom margin with the Format Division Margins command. By specifying a negative value, Word will not manipulate document text to make room for running heads. If the running head is larger than the specified margin, it will overlap the document text.

If a value greater than zero is used as the margin value, Word will print the entire running head and adjust the margins so they do not overlap with the body of the document. The values selected with the Format Division Margins command are not changed; only the printout is adjusted.
