For your second problem, if I'm reading you right, I think you're just
misinterpreting SDI. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/SDIMDI.htm

For the first problem, hover your mouse over the top of the page till the
pointer changes to a double arrow and you get the ScreenTip "Show White
Space." Click the left mouse button. If you then hover your mouse over the
top of the page again, you'll see "Hide White Space." If you click now,
you'll be back where you started (which is probably how you got there in the
first place--a stray click in the wrong place!). You can also change this
setting using the "White space between pages" check box on the View tab of
Tools | Options.
