Okay everyone....
I know this has been covered, but, I still need help I guess..

When formatting the final draft... or whatever draft in MS word, and everyone says... double spaced, 1" margins...

I have a problem with that. Where the hell do I tune the margins? Under the 'format' option, under 'paragraph?' It's not there. It says 'indent.' Is that what they are talking about? I tried to find margin, but indent seems likely to be the same thing, but no one ever says that. So ... can you either tell me if I'm right about the indent thing, or can you tell me how to do margins...

sorry this is like... the worst question ever. I swear I'm really good with the comp (normally..)
but you know...

so thanks

All you have to do is click on "File", scroll down to Page Setup, which is just above Print Preview.

Then the first screen you should see if where you can change your margins to whatever size you wish.

Hope this helps
