I have one problem editing web pages in Word. I can't adjust the page
margins either on the screen or as they print. No matter what I enter
in setup the screen margins go to the edges of the scrreen and the
print version has very wide margins.

Why are you using Word? Have you simply tried to transfer your html to Notepad?

"Editing a web page in Word" allows me to modify pages on my web site
using all the Word commands, which would not be possible in Notepad.
It then allows me to save as a web page (in HTML)Unnfortunately, the
one command that does not seem to work is margin set

This may be helpful:

You can edit a webpage in word for sure
first visit the webpage 
then click file and click saave as and type a name for it and click save
and then right click on that file in your saved location and then
click on properties and then in open with click change and a list will
appear and  select word in it and click ok . now double click and open
the file it will open in word edit it as much as you want and then go
to file and click save it as you want

I agree with cynthia-ga that Notepad would be a far better tool than
word.  Unless you have a captive audience that you can force to use
only the browser / os version you use, using word for creating html
pages is an extremely poor choice.  Do a google search on "clean up
word html" and you'll quickly discover word creates non-standard html
code that is often bloated to 10 times the size needed.  Word html
code are only reliable on windows / IE and load 10 times slower than
if they were made in a good web editor or even if made by hand in
Notepad.

Actually, HTML is not meant to be structured in a word processing
program. Why not use a WYSIWYG editor? Learning HTML is not all that
heard, and with a WYSIWYG editor, you use a HTML editing program, you
can do many of the same things as you would in WORD but without the
problems.

I could eat cereal with a fork and slurp from the bowl, but why bother
when there's a spoon in the drawer?
