I opened my Microsoft Word today and noticed the text is sideways now. Does anyone have any suggestion for what to do here? I haven't seen this before. A sample file is below. Thanks in advanced. sample file removed by admin
in the process of trying to help, i now have the same problem. lol. i'll figure it out after the rox game. if anybody knows off hand what it can be and has suggestions that could save time they'd be greatly appreciated.
The "Text Direction" choice is not a highlighted option in the menu. I think "text direction" is to change the orientation of text in a text box. However, it seems like my entire page is sideways, and not just a text box. Even the icons for text justification are sideways. This is one of the weirdest problems I've encountered on Microsoft Word. In any case, thanks for the help.
What version of Word? Try something like this (do it at your own risk! ): Shut down Word. Then try finding your normal.dot file on your hard drive and renaming it to something like normal.bak (you could delete it, too, but just rename it for now). Then start Word back up.
Explain...Where is normal.dot...? My Word is the Word from Windowns ME. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this?
There is no Word for any particular Windows OS. There's a normal.dot file located where Word is installed. Find it and rename it to something else. It should be located in something like a Templates folder where you have Word installed.
just reinstall MS office and choose word installation..start from new again..then get updates from windows site.
