Documents open in the format in which they were created. If they were
created as A4, they stay that way unless you change them.

If you mean new documents, they take the page setup of their template: open
the template, fix it, save.

The default setting is determined by the regional settings in Windows.
Whether normal.dot is initially configured to use A4 or letter sized paper
will be governed by Windows.

Open MS-Word.
Go to: File> Page Setup> Paper size
And change the paper size into Letter.
Save this document with "dot" format. (Save it as word template). For
example name it "Normal2.dot"

Now you can open this document by clicking on:
Start> New Office Document> Normal2
You can also delete "Normal.dot" and rename "Normal2.dot" into "Normal.dot",
but you should know how to work with hidden files to be able to do this.
