     Users of MW 4.0 at my site are having great problems with
the formatting of documents opened on one Mac that were created on
another.  The problem seems to have something to do with the differ-
ent ruler widths that Word 4 displays on compact Mac screens.  The
screen either gives 6" of text per line, or slightly more than 6.5"
per line, which is wreaking havoc on both the screen view and printed
output.

     Has anyone encountered this before, or know of a fix?  I have
tried to make the Word Settings (4) file standard on all machines, 
but this does not seem to help at all.  We are using a variety of
machines, but most are SEs (old and FDHD).

     Summary to follow, if some kind soul(s) can help out!
