I thought about it. I could try to create a new blank document and start over from scratch. It will take longer but it could have been something I did when creating the document, in the first place, and didn't even realize it. I created the document so long ago. What I do is I organize my resume into subfolders based on the date they were updated and every time I update the document I save it as a new file (new date added to the file title) in a new subfolder. It could be because the document is a hand-me-down of an older document from ages ago.

I never use other templates besides the plain blank template that Microsoft provides, unless I need to. I use word for creative writing, my resume, and references. Unless it's something that requires another template I do it all myself.
