Problems with Microsoft Word 2007

0	It is not a problem, it is just a aligner to show you how far the typing is from the edge of the page. I don't really know the name, but it is not a problem. answered Jun 15 '10 at 02:59 kevin ♦♦ 35.7k●160●316●588

0	That is part of the advanced paragraph function of Word. It is to help show you where the margins are on the document. It can be turned off from the "View" tab. So yet it is normal and nothing is broken. answered Jun 15 '10 at 03:32 Craighton ♦♦ 16.6k●115●207●329
