I am trying to use OpenOffice version 1.9.93 to open reports created in
Microsoft Word 2000. In Word, there are page borders which are measured
from text and do not surround the header and footer. 
 
When I "file" "open" these documents in Word, the page borders move to
below the header and footer. How can I avoid this happening? If it is
impossible to avoid this problem at this stage of development, how can I
correct the page borders so they show correctly?
 
I don't know how to correct the problem automatically on import.  That 
being said:

1.  Menu > Format > Page
2.  Select the Header Tab.
3.  At the bottom left, click on More...
4.  In the box labelled "User-defined",  I suspect you will see a 
horizontal line above the gray area in the center of the box.
Click on the visible line to remove it.  Click just to the bottom of the 
gray area to add a line below the header.
5.  Go to the Footer tab and repeat the process for the desired results.
