How do I make 11/2 margins on microsoft word 2010? What is a number/2 mean for formatting purposes?

I'm learning how to write screenplay format before I begin using screenwriting software. The left margin is supposed to be 11/2. Also the "Screen writing for dummies" book also calls for other page reference points for CHARACTER NAME at 21/2 inches from the left margin, DIALOGUE 21/2 inches from left hand side of page (1 inch from left margin), 61/2 inches from the left hand side of the page (5 inches from the left margin), PARENTHETIC ALS 31/2 inches from left hand side of the page (2 inches from left margin. I don't understand what the fraction by 2 is and how to use it as a formatting measurement in Microsoft Word.

Dude, you're really going about it the hard way. You can download ready-made screenplay templates for Word here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/screenplay-TC001018636.aspx or here: http://www.keithloh.com/writing/filmscript/templates.html

But even better, you can download free screenwriting software, which I and plenty of other screenwriters highly recommend, from http://www.celtx.com It'll take all the hassle out of formatting so you can get on with the important stuff, and has all kinds of other useful features too.

Good luck!
